How well is your memory working?
Here is a questionnaire that has been designed to give you an idea of your everyday memory performance. The questions will help you to identify the strengths and weaknesses of your memory.
Find a quiet place and spend a few minutes filling it in. Do try to be as honest as possible.
Each of the questions has four possible answers. These correspond with how often this type of memory lapse happens to you.
Once you have completed the memory questionnaire, ask someone who lives with you, or a close friend, to make their assessment of how well you remember things. Comparing the score you gave yourself with the score your friend or relative gave you will give you a more realistic view of your memory performance.
