出于几个原因，需要客观、可靠和有效的手段来评估老年人的认知和心理社会功能。对项目评估和临床试验的研究工具的需求补充了对初始评估、安置和治疗监测的临床需求。老年人多维观察量表（MOSES）是根据这些需求开发的一套行为评定量表。本文描述了MOSES量表的发展及其原理，并对2,391名医院和住宅环境的居民进行了规范。内部一致性的可靠性在0.8范围内，从0.58到0.97的评分者之间的可靠性报告。与Zung抑郁、Robertson简短精神状态、金斯顿痴呆和身心功能障碍评估（PAMIE）量表的有效性相关性均令人满意。讨论了使用MOSES的应用和优点。
Objective, reliable and valid means of assessing the cognitive and psychosocial functionings of elderly persons are in demand for several reasons. Clinical needs for initial assessment, placement, and treatment monitoring are supplemented by the need for research tools for program evaluation and clinical trials. The set of behavior rating scales called the Multidimensional Observation Scale for Elderly Subjects (MOSES) was developed with these needs in mind. This paper describes the development of the MOSES scale and its rationale and norming on 2,391 residents of hospitals and residential settings. Internal consistency reliabilities in the 0.8 range and interrater reliabilities from .58 to .97 are reported. Validity correlations with the Zung Depression, Robertson Short Mental Status, Kingston Dementia, and the Physical and Mental Impairment-of-function Evaluation (PAMIE) scales were all satisfactory. The applications and advantages of the use of MOSES are discussed.
