The present study examined the reliability and construct validity in an older adult population of scores on the behavioural competence inventory (BCI), a seven - scale in format measure of adaptive functioning. Study participants included 148 older adults and their informats who participated in a neuropsychological assessment. Results indivated that scores on the seven scales showed adequate internal consistencies and represented seven overlapping but distinct constructs in this population. The BCI's seven scales also discriminated among recommended levels of care. A statically significant interaction between recommended level of care and current living situation (independent or with family) suggested that the BCI's utility depends on context.
