Abstract

The purpose of this study was to establish a method of screening elderly individuals for deficits that may affect driving performances and to determine if more time consuming performance- based evaluation is necessary. A self- administered Driving Questionnaire and Daily Driving Diary were completed by 49 subjects, aged 65 to 90. Correlations between self- report and observation and the finding that subjects were fairly compliant indicate that these screening methods merit further refinement and testing.
