Part of this study is concerned with people's memory, and
ability to think about things. For the next few questions,
I want you to think about
[Q371-R FIRST NAME] as of one month before
(his/her) death. First, how would you rate
[Q371-R FIRST NAME]'s memory at that time? Would you say it was
excellent, very good, good, fair or poor?

Now we want you to remember what
[Q371-R FIRST NAME] was like
IF Q370 IS (1)
when we interviewed (him/her) in
[Q95-PREV WAVE IW MONTH]
[Q96-PREV WAVE IW YEAR]
ELSE
two years before (his/her) death
END
and to compare it with what (he/she) was like toward
the end of (his/her) life, but leaving out the last month or
so of (his/her) life.
I will read situations where
[Q371-R FIRST NAME] had to use (his/her) memory
or intelligence and we would like you to indicate whether this
improved, stayed the same, or got worse in that situation over
that time period.
Note the importance of comparing (his/her) performance toward
the end of (his/her) life with
IF Q370 IS (1)
when we interviewed (him/her) in
[Q95-PREV WAVE IW MONTH]
[Q96.] . So if in
[Q95-PREV WAVE IW MONTH]
[Q96-PREV WAVE IW YEAR]
ELSE
two years before (his/her) death. So if two years earlier
END
[Q371-R FIRST NAME] always forgot where (he/she) had left things,
and
(he/she) still did toward the end of (his/her) life,
then this would be considered "not much change".
