Définition

  • The subject is required to check the results of a series of mathematical equations and to read aloud a word that ends each equation. After the presentation of a series of two to seven equations, the subject is asked to remember the words in the correct order. The span is the maximum number of words that the subject is able to remember. There are variations on this procedure (e.g. words at the end of a series of equations may be replaced by letters).
