1 Memory measures like the CVLT help differentiate normal, age-related decline from deficits related to disruption or impairment of memory processes.True or False

2 The California Verbal Learning Test was developed using in the process approach. This means that although ____________ are important in determining severity of a memory impairment or what a person can do, ___________ provide key information on how a person achieves those scores.overall recall scores, process scoresprocess scores, behavioral characteristicserror scores, immediate and delayed recall scoreserror scores, process scores

3 The CVLT-C was designed specifically for children ages 5–16. What is the main difference between the structure of the CVLT-C and the CVLT-II?The word lists are divided into semantic categories on CVLT-II.The word lists are shorter on CVLT-C and involve categories for children.CVLT-C reflects developmental processes specific to children.The structure of the CVLT-C and CVLT-II are the same

4 The Forced-Choice Recognition condition was added after the original CVLT. What was this condition specifically designed to measure?Recall errorsRecognition memoryLearning characteristicsPerformance validity

5 Semantic clustering, serial clustering, and serial position effects are all:learning strategies and characteristicsways to enhance recall of informationmeasures of immediate and delayed memorymeasures of recognition memory

6 Why is reliability in memory assessments difficult to assess?Items are not scored individuallyTrials are not scored individuallyItems are not independentScores on memory measures are skewed

7 All scores on CVLT-C, CVLT-II, and CVLT3 can be hand scored.True or False

8 Which of the following is a major change introduced in the CVLT3?new word lists were created for CVLT3an alternate form and a short form were introducedthe age range was extended down to 5normative scores are not corrected for gender only

9 Memory processes are influenced by cognitive abilities other than specific encoding, storage, and retrieval functions.True or False

10 Practice effects on memory tests:are negligible.can be observed for months or years.are not relevant in clinical populations.are short lived, similar to other cognitive measures.
