As the questions are read to you, please answer them, but also tell the research staff member what you're thinking. Please try to think out loud and say everything that comes to mind, whether it seems important or not. You will be asked how you came up with your answers and how you understood the questions. If any question seems unclear or hard to answer, please tell the research staff member. A member of the research staff will be taking notes during the interview.

The cognitive interview should take up to 45 minutes to complete.
