The subject is required to<br />

recognize as soon as possible a<br />

name which is constructed<br />

progressively on the screen in 15<br />

stages. A practice trial is given<br />

followed by 10 trials in which 5<br />

names were amongst those learnt<br />

in the previous name recall tests<br />

and the other 5 are new<br />

names.The interviewer presses<br />

the OK button on the right of the<br />

screen when the subject<br />

recognizes the name. If the<br />

subject gives an incorrect name<br />

the interviewer should let the<br />

trial continue with further<br />

construction of the name until it<br />

is recognized.<br />
