This task tests immediate verbal memory recall. The participant is asked to repeat the list of words in the exact order they were presented. The correct answer is the list of words as it was presented. The ability to recall them in sequence without errors shows intact immediate memory.
In this task, the participant is asked to recall words from the list after a short delay (typically 5 minutes). The number of words recalled and how many of them are correct is a measure of short-term memory retention. The correct answer includes three of the five words from the original list.
This task tests the participant's ability to repeat the words in the exact order given. The correct answer reflects the exact sequence of the words as they were initially presented. This tests the ability to store and retrieve information immediately.
This question tests delayed recall, which requires remembering information over a longer interval (5 minutes). The ability to recall some or all of the words after the delay demonstrates the participant’s short-term memory retention and ability to retrieve information over time.
This question tests the participant's ability to recall words after a cognitive distractor task (serial subtraction). The correct answer is the original list of words, as the distractor task challenges the participant's ability to maintain memory while focusing on another task.
