6. VISUAL AND AUDITORY<br />

ATTENTION<br />

In this “double-task” designed to<br />

assess working memory, the<br />

subject must combine the two<br />

previous tasks; locating the<br />

shapes and counting the sounds.<br />

In this task only long sounds are<br />

presented. The number of sounds<br />

will vary according to the time<br />

the subject takes to locate the<br />

shapes. Two practice trials are<br />

given.<br />

Ten trials are given for this test.<br />

The number of sounds reported<br />

by the subject are recorded by the<br />

interviewer on the counter. If the<br />

subject takes more than ten<br />

seconds then a Time error is<br />

recorded and the next trial is<br />

given.<br />

The following will appear in the<br />

Results file:<br />

- Number correct trials<br />

- Number incorrect trials<br />

- Number of Time errors<br />

- Number of nonresponses<br />

- Time taken for each trial<br />
