California Verbal Learning Test

The California Verbal Learning Test (CVLT) is a psychological assessment used to evaluate a person's ability to learn and remember verbal information. It involves presenting a list of words multiple times, then asking the individual to recall as many words as possible, both immediately and after delays. The test helps identify patterns in memory performance, such as how well someone retains information over time or how they organize and retrieve memories. It is commonly used by neuropsychologists to assess cognitive functioning related to memory and to help diagnose conditions affecting memory, such as brain injuries or neurological disorders.
