Item type: Question
Question text:
PC7. 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".
