What if a patient perseverates (repeats the same thing over and over) during administration of the expressive subtests (e.g., Naming, Repetition, Yes/No)?
Record the patient’s response following administration of an instruction. If the patient’s response is anything other than the correct answer, record the response and score it as incorrect. At the bottom of the test protocol, there is a place to mark that perseveration was present during the examination; this item is a qualitative descriptor in that it only records the presence or absence of this particular phenomenon.
