Quickly Test for Axis 1 Disorders in the Elderly to See if More Testing or a Referral is Needed
The CASE-SF is designed to provide you with a rapid assessment of elderly adults to help you determine whether a more comprehensive evaluation of psychopathology or a referral for a different type of examination might be needed (e.g., referral to a neuropsychologist). The CASE-SF consists of a self-rating test booklet (Form S) and an other-rating test booklet (Form R) that can be completed by a knowledgeable caregiver such as a spouse, child, home health care worker, or sibling. Derived from the CASE, the CASE-SF includes all 10 CASE clinical scales and two of the CASE validity scales (Lie and Validity).
