早期老年恶化和老年抑郁障碍的诊断鉴别的重要性导致了Sandoz临床老年评估(SCAG)作为一种特别适用于老年人的新的评估工具的发展。它由18个症状区域组成，按7分格式评级。研究一对51名老年受试者(25名志愿者和26名健康中心住院患者)进行了SCAG测试和广泛使用的MSER(精神状态检查记录)测试。在研究2中，获得了由4名精神科医生测试的8名受试者的数据，以确定评价者之间的可靠性。统计结果表明，SCAG是一种有效、可靠的老年人精神病理学评估工具。
The importance of diagnostic differentiation between early senile deterioration and depressive disorders in the aged led to the development of Sandoz Clinical Assessment—Geriatric (SCAG) as a new rating instrument especially applicable to the elderly. It is composed of 18 symptom areas rated on a 7‐point format. Study 1 was carried out on 51 geriatric subjects (25 volunteers and 26 hospital inpatients at a health center), tested by SCAG and also by the widely used MSER (Mental Status Examination Record). In Study 2, data were obtained on 8 subjects tested by 4 psychiatrists, to determine interrater reliability. The statistical findings indicated that SCAG is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing psychopathology in the elderly.
