Data from a large 6-month prospective study of aggressive behaviour in 11 nursing homes for the elderly are used to examine the relationship between two aggression scales (SOAS and RAGE). There was a strong and significant correlation between the SOAS and RAGE scares for the total and the subscale scores. Both these scales appear useful in measuring aggressive behaviour in nursing homes for the elderly and the nursing home staff can be trained in completing them effectively.
