This visibility does not impact administration or scoring. The markings help with examiner accuracy but do not provide answers. If the examinee is distracted, try redirecting their attention, use overhead lighting, or adjust card positioning.

Scoring includes two criteria: Group score (order of touches within each picture group) and Order score (sequence of picture groups). This system captures more detailed performance patterns.

A second exposure (Scene Review) improves delayed recall. As a result, higher raw scores are required for the same scaled score to reflect the enhanced performance seen in standardisation.

No. The original manual reversed the steps. Use: (Primacy or Recency Total ÷ Verbal Learning Total) × 100, rounded to the nearest whole number. This was corrected in later manuals.

Trial 4 is correct. Trial 3 was duplicated in error. The correct Trial 3 image is available in the digital version. Contact Pearson Customer Service for access.

This was a typographical error. The “Inaccurate” criteria should read “...a diagonal line slanted downward from left to right.”

Yes. The Interpretive Report is available for the full 17-subtest version. If fewer subtests are given, only those results appear in the report.

  • Picture Memory: Use only the correct age-based item set (5–9: Items 1–3; 10–90: Items 4–6).
  • Story Memory: Administer stories A & B for ages 5–9, and stories C & D for ages 10–90.
  • Design Learning: Use correct card orientation. An upside-down card invalidates the Recognition trial.
  • Verbal Learning: Administer 13-word list for ages 5–9, full 16-word list for ages 10–90.
  • Working Memory: Always administer both Item Sets (A/B or B/C by age) regardless of early discontinuation. Discontinue based on Item scores, not Group scores.
