A standardized memory test measuring four different facets of memory, used to assess learning and memory. This test is done because difficulty with memory is a common complaint of most patients. It specifically measures:
- Auditory (Verbal) Memory: Ability to remember information immediately after oral presentation.
- Visual Memory: Ability to remember information immediately after visual presentation.
- Immediate Memory: Overall measure of immediate recall, ability to remember both visual and auditory information immediately after it is presented.
- Working Memory: High level attention/concentration, capacity to remember and manipulate both visually and orally presented information in short-term memory storage.
