What is the purpose of determining the “Six Domains” and functionally equaling a listing?
In determining whether an impairment or combination of impairments functionally equals the listings, the ALJ must assess the claimant’s functioning in terms of six domains: (1) acquiring and using information; (2) attending and completing tasks; (3) interacting and relating with others; (4) moving about and manipulating objects; (5) caring for his or herself; and (6) health and physical well-being.
