Rey’s Verbal Learning Test

The Rey’s Auditory Verbal Learning Task (AVLT) measures short- and long-term verbal memory. In the task, a list of 15 unrelated, concrete nouns is presented via audio with a 1 second interval over five learning trials. After each presentation, participants have to name as many of the presented words as possible. Next, after a delay interval of 20-30 minutes, and with no further presentations of the list, delayed recall is assessed. Performance is measured after each trial by number of correct words, perseverations, intrusions, and double intrusions.
