  • Title: Russell's revised Wechsler Memory Scale in the evaluation of dementia.
    Author: Brinkman SD, Largen JW, Gerganoff S, Pomara N.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 1983 Nov; 39(6):989-93. PubMed ID: 6662957.
    Abstract:
    Matched 31 elderly normals and 25 patients with suspected Alzheimer's disease for age and education and administered the Revised Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS-R). The patient group performed significantly less well than the control group on all WMS-R subtests. A bimodal distribution of Percent Retained scores was noted in the patient group, but not in the control group. Results are discussed with respect to the clinical utility of the WMS-R as a memory screening procedure.
