cogabrelease_w3.wrcomppre
Question label:
Word recall computer preamble
Question text:
The computer will now read a set of 10 words. I would like you to remember as many as you can. We have purposely made the list long so it will be difficult for anyone to remember all the words. Most people remember just a few.
Please listen carefully to the set of words as they cannot be repeated. When it has finished, I will ask you to recall aloud as many of the words as you can, in any order. Is this clear?
Question universe:
if WrdRecPref REF | HearComputer REF (Resp hasn't refused test at Word Recall Preamble or at HearComputer)
and if ReadTest = 1 (If list read out by computer)
Question interviewer instructions:
IF NO, EXPLAIN FURTHER. IF YES, BEGIN TEST.
