There is a great deal of overlap in the structure, administration, scoring, and interpretation of the CVLT versions. For ease of communication, CVLT is used throughout this guide to refer to all three versions presented. This allows for quick communication of information without listing each individual measure. In instances where CVLT refers to the original publication, this is indicated within the text. Moreover, when information is specific to one version of the CVLT, this is clearly indicated.

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.

Answers: 1. True, 2. a, 3. b, 4. d, 5. a, 6. c, 7. False, 8. d, 9. True, 10. b
