Abstract
This article presents the evaluation of reliability, validity, and preference for a pain intensity scale for use with the elderly, the Faces Pain Scale-Revised. This scale could help clinicians to assess the intensity of pain in cognitively intact elderly patients and might also be helpful in making decisions about treatment. Likewise, it could be used by researchers who wish to evaluate the effects of available treatments.
