摘要：
Purpose of review This review is a comprehensive summary of recent work in the field of neuropsychology that is relevant to geriatric psychiatry. Recent findings Recent research identified neuropsychological predictors of functioning in geriatric samples, elucidated the neuropathology and neuropsychology of geriatric depression, further clarified the association between dementia and depression, contributed to advancements in the early detection and diagnosis of dementia, investigated emotion processing in aging, and adapted neuropsychological tests for severely impaired samples. There were encouraging trends indicating that neuropsychological investigations are becoming increasingly culturally diverse. Summary Recent research in neuropsychology will facilitate both the prediction of important clinical outcomes in geriatric samples and accurate differential diagnosis of psychiatric patients.
