title: [The Hungarian version of the Nuremberg Geronto-psychological Inventory].
abstract: The NAI (Nürnberger Alters Inventar) has been elaborated by Oswald and Fleischmann (1982). The NAI introduced as a standardized psychometric method for the description of the most significant fields of the cognitive performance as well as of the behaviour and general condition of the elderly. This inventory, which is extended currently, tries to join a wide-scope theory with an easy to use psychometric method. It aims at a comprehensive evaluation of psychological aging as well as therapeutical intervention caused effects. The first practical application of the Hungarian version of NAI was a double blind clinical trial to study the effect of centrophenoxine in human dementia. Both the result of this trial and previous experiences confirm the drug sensitivity of the NAI. The main fields of the application of NAI: gerontopsychological research, geriatrical units, social and health care for elderly. The development of the Hungarian standard is in process on 500 elderly people.
