All patients in 2 wards over a 2-month period were approached and invited to complete a brief neuropsychological battery. Sixty-two patients volunteered, of whom 52 completed at least 3 of the 4 measures of executive functioning. The frequency of executive dysfunction in the resulting sample of 52 was determined. Impaired executive function was defined as impaired performance on at least 2 executive function tests. The authors administered the Hayling-Brixton tests, the verbal fluency test, the Trail-Making Test, the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and the Geriatric Depression Scale. Patients\u2019 behavior was rated for executive problems on the Dysexecutive Questionnaire by themselves and by a nurse. The frequency of executive impairment was high at 13 out of 52 patients (25%). Only 1 of these 13 patients with executive difficulties was impaired according to their MMSE score. Screening for executive impairment among older rehabilitation inpatients is a necessary part of their medical management and rehabilitation. This should involve more than just administering the MMSE at admission. Several brief methods for screening for executive impairment are now available.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0891988704264536","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,5,27]],"date-time":"2004-05-27T08:40:00Z","timestamp":1085647200000},"page":"68-72","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":25,"title":["The Frequency of Executive Cognitive Impairment in Elderly Rehabilitation Inpatients"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Arman","family":"Kahokehr","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Richard J.","family":"Siegert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark","family":"Weatherall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Wellington School of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/31.5.373"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1099-1166(200101)16:1<18::AID-GPS265>3.0.CO;2-W"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/gps.646"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/32.3.299"},{"key":"atypb5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(99)90438-5"},{"key":"atypb6","volume-title":"Neuropsychological assessment","author":"Lezak M.","year":"1995","edition":"3"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.psych.53.100901.135220"},{"key":"atypb8","volume-title":"The dementias","author":"Growdon JH","year":"1998"},{"key":"atypb9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0033-2909.120.2.272"},{"key":"atypb10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/geronb\/55.6.P373"},{"key":"atypb11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archneur.59.10.1612"},{"key":"atypb12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0022-3956(75)90026-6"},{"key":"atypb13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-5415.1992.tb01992.x"},{"key":"atypb14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0090-5550.48.1.14"},{"key":"atypb15","volume-title":"The Hayling and Brixton Tests","author":"Burgess PW","year":"1997"},{"key":"atypb16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1037\/0894-4105.17.2.255"},{"key":"atypb17","volume-title":"A compendium of neuropsychological tests","author":"Spreen O","year":"1998"},{"key":"atypb18","volume-title":"Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-III","author":"Wechsler D.","year":"1997"},{"key":"atypb19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.283.5408.1657"},{"key":"atypb20","volume-title":"Behavioural assessment of the dysexecutive syndrome","author":"Wilson BA","year":"1996"},{"key":"atypb21","volume-title":"Assessment in geriatric psychopharmacology","author":"Yesavage JA","year":"1983"},{"key":"atypb22","volume-title":"Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (DKEFS)","author":"Delis DC","year":"2001"},{"key":"atypb23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1532-5415.1992.tb03646.x"},{"key":"atypb24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/WNL.55.11.1621"}],"container-title":["Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neurology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0891988704264536","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/0891988704264536","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,29]],"date-time":"2026-04-29T22:17:44Z","timestamp":1777501064000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0891988704264536"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2004,6]]},"references-count":24,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2004,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/0891988704264536"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/0891988704264536","relation":{},"ISSN":["0891-9887","1552-5708"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0891-9887","type":"print"},{"value":"1552-5708","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2004,6]]}}}
