title: [Neuropsychological therapy at the computer with the elderly].
abstract: Since the end of the 1970s, computers have been used in neuropsychological rehabilitation. This article points out the possibilities, as well as the limits in using computers with the elderly, and is focused on their particular needs. Furthermore, indications are listed whereby computers in neuropsychological therapy in Albertinen-Haus, Hamburg, FRG, have been applied. The need for a neuropsychological diagnostic is shown and illustrated with test examples. Finally, four individual case studies are discussed.
