I took a cognitive test once, kind of by proxy. The woman I was with had the appointment for an assessment. I think the purpose was to determine if she was employable. The psychologist, or maybe a psychiatrist, asked if I would go into the examining room with them. She was more than willing to have me accompany her; she liked being around people she knew.
I sat in the back of the room, as invisible as I could be. Among the questions asked was the memory test. And at the end of the session, the doctor asked her if she could remember the series of words.She recalled some, but not all. Then, for some unknown reason, he asked me if I could remember them. I did and he seemed pleased, but made no comment. I guess I served as the control group.
