1. (Picture is presented) Semantic self-cue | Clinician prompts semantic description with, “Tell me about it.” Additional prompting follows, as needed: “Where would you find this? What is it used for? Do you have any memories about this?” (If the item is named in this step, the clinician proceeds to step 5.) |
2. Orthographic self-cue | Clinician requests written form of the word: “Can you write the word?” If unable to, the participant is encouraged to think of the first letter and/or sound of the word and any other characteristics about the word (i.e., “Is it a long or a short word?”). If the participant cannot come up with the first letter, the clinician writes the first grapheme. |
3. Phonemic self-cue | Clinician asks the participant to make the sound associated with the letter. (If the item is named in this step, the clinician proceeds to step 5.) |
4. Oral reading | If the item is not yet named, the clinician writes out the remainder of the word and the participant reads it aloud. |
5. Written and Spoken Repetition | The participant writes and says the word three times. |
6. Semantic Plausibility Judgments | Clinician asks three yes/no questions regarding semantic features of the item (e.g., “would you find this in a toolbox?”) |
7. Recall | Clinician asks the participant to provide the most salient semantic features and write and say the word one time. |
