Abstract

Background: The present study was designed to investigate the relationship between the Persian Adult Reading Test (PART) and current intellectual ability in a group of elderly with and with out memory problems. Objective: Reading short and irregular words is the last ability preserved in dementia and brain degenerative diseases This ability shows the PREMORBID IQ of patients with memory deficit.Methods: Seventy-five subjects aged above 55 years (23 males and 52 females), visitors of 3 available elderly community houses in Shiraz, Iran, were requested to take PART in the study. Four measures of cognitive ability were utilized: 1- The verbal paired association learning task (a sub-test of Wechsler Memory Scale) with delay recall; 2- Computing a series of mental arithmetic; 3- A task of reading 50 Persian words (PART); 4- Finally, they were requested to give response to Raven Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM) as a measure of general intellectual ability (i.e., IQ).Results: Positive and significant correlations between PART scores and RSPM (r=0.36 for total sample; r=0.46 for males; r=0.35 for females), and PART and mental arithmetic task (r= 0.36 for total sample, r=0.44 for males; r=0.33 for females) were obtained. There were no significant differences between elderly subjects suspected of having dementia and those without memory deficit in PART scores (p=0.36) while the two groups were significantly different in RSPM scores (P<0.0001).Conclusions: These findings suggest that PART could be valid for the estimation of premorbid intellectual ability in elderly people, but further study on clinically diagnosed subgroup of dementic patients is required.
