Plain-language summary
The purpose of the study is to examine the properties of the Automatic Story Recall Test (ASRT) and its parallel variants, as well as letter fluency and category fluency cognitive tests. Tests will be completed in crowdsourced populations, to derive normative data, and examine test properties in demographically diverse and cognitively impaired participants recruited and tested online.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* First language must be English
* Residing in the USA
* Willing to participate in a study investigating speech and dementia
* Able to provide informed consent
* Access to personal computing device that is capable of audio and video recording, and able to connect to the internet
Since key research questions are focused primarily on older-age speech and cognition, initial recruitment will be focused on older adult age brackets, which may be extended to younger adulthood if the desired sample sizes are not attained.
Exclusion Criteria:
* No formal exclusion criteria will apply at the point of recruitment and testing. however, participants with a reported history of neurological conditions or head injury, and current depression will be excluded from normative data development.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
