The Italian version of the Geriatric Mental State Examination (GMS) was tested for interrater agreement (interobserver). Thirty geriatric patients from psychiatry, neurology and general medical facilities were interviewed by four raters. The mean values of kappa and phi for the analysable items were 0.80 and 0.81. 'Organic' and 'functional' items produced very similar coefficient values
