Cued recall Illustration Pattern BNEW!
Let’s challenge a cued recall task where you memorize four illustrations related to combat vehicles, percussion instruments, sensory organs, and audio equipment within 10 seconds.
You can use any memorization method, but since each belongs to a different category, it might help to associate them with something.
After you’ve memorized them, work on a number-based task before answering.
When the task is finished, I’ll ask you to name the illustrations you memorized, so try not to forget them.
If you’ve forgotten that you memorized them at all, there may be a possibility of dementia.
Cued recall Illustration Pattern BNEW!
Let me introduce you to “cued recall,” where you remember and then report the presented illustrations.
In 10 seconds, you will memorize four illustrations related to insects, animals, vegetables, and cooking utensils.
After that, you will do a task unrelated to scoring, and then you will report the illustrations you remembered.
If there are any illustrations you have forgotten at that point, please answer while looking at the hints that follow.
Since memory decline is a symptom of dementia, we will use this cued recall to thoroughly assess cognitive function.
Orientation to timeNEW!
As an early symptom of dementia, people may lose the ability to correctly recognize the date, time, or season.
For this reason, drivers aged 75 and older are required to undergo a cognitive function test that includes this “orientation to time.” The questions are simple, such as “What month and day is it today?” and “What time is it now?”, so if no symptoms are present, they should be able to answer without difficulty.
If the test results indicate a possible risk of dementia, a medical examination by a doctor is required.
It’s also a test that can lead to early detection of dementia!

Cued Recall Illustration Pattern CNEW!
We will test your memory using four illustrations related to tools, vehicles, fruit, and clothing.
First, memorize the four displayed illustrations in 10 seconds.
Don’t write anything down—commit them firmly to memory in your head.
After the time limit, while trying not to forget the illustrations, you will work on a task using numbers.
Then, you will be asked to find and answer which illustrations you remembered from a list.
If all four come to you easily, that’s a bit of reassurance!
Cued recall Illustration Pattern DNEW!
Let’s try memorizing the illustrations in 10 seconds to test your memory.
Time will fly by, so be sure to memorize them well using an easy method—such as associating them with something or making up a story with the four illustrations.
If you manage to memorize them, you’ll move on to another task next.
After you finish that task, you’ll be asked to name all the illustrations you memorized.
You’ll choose your answers from a list of words, so if you remember them even faintly, you just might get a perfect score.
Cued recall Illustration Pattern DNEW!
“Cued recall,” in which you remember and answer about illustrations, is one of the cognitive function tests actually conducted during driver’s license renewal.
Drivers aged 75 and older need to take this test to check for any cognitive issues.
Although it is only a simple screening, if you fail it, you may be judged as having a risk of dementia.
The test itself is straightforward: just memorize the displayed illustrations.
If you want to get used to it before the test day, please give it a try.
Cued recall Illustration Pattern ANEW!
We would like to introduce a cognitive function test that uses illustrations.
This item is called “cued recall.” You memorize the displayed illustrations within a specified time, and after completing another task, you are asked to recall those illustrations.
The response has two stages: first, you answer without looking at anything; next, you answer using hints as cues.
Now, let’s experience cued recall using illustrations similar to those in the actual test.
You will have 10 seconds to memorize the illustrations.
If you’re not confident in your memory, please try it as a form of training.
