[Use of the labyrinth test in gerontologic functional diagnosis]

The authors inform on the basic application possibilities of the labyrinth-test in gerontological functional diagnoses. They are able to refer to experiences gained from their investigations with 365 subjects from 18 to 75 years of age (197 female, 168 male ones). They recommend this psychological procedure as a practicable and economical method to assess age-dynamics of over-lapping sub-aspects of intelligence (orientational capacity, transitional ability, problem-solutional attitude, memory performance).
