The present study aimed to investigate the clinical validity of the Korean version of Older Adult Behavior Checklist (OABCL) which was developed to examine the diverse aspects of geriatric behavior problems. A total of 244 subjects, both patients who were older than 60 years and their caregivers, were included. The results of partial correlation between OABCL and Korean- Mini Mental State (K-MMSE), Seoul-Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (S-IADL), K-Clinical Dementia Rating (KCDR), Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) and Caregiver-Administered NPI (CGA-NPI) showed that most of the inventories significantly correlated when age and the number of education years attained were statistically controlled. In particular, functional impairment, anxious/depressed scales of empirically base problem scales, and dementia, depressive problems of DSMoriented scales were highly correlated with others. Additionally, ANCOVA revealed that worries, somatic complaints, functional impairment of empirically base problem scales, and somatic problems of DSM-oriented scales were significantly different between those with dementia (n=59) and those with depressive disorder (n=48). The implications for clinical application and directions for future research were also discussed.
