Industry: Email Alert RSS FeedCan doctors predict patients' abbreviated mental test scores - Abstract
Age and Ageing, July, 2002 by Elizabeth Burleigh, Christine McAlpine, James Davie

However, many doctors do not administer the full 10 questions, preferring to estimate the patient's score instead. We have studied the accuracy of doctors in predicting patients' abbreviated mental test scores.
