Welcome to the final phase. Below you will find some cues to jar your memory of the biographies that you read earlier. You will get the name and age of the person in each biography and one fact about him. You will then be asked to type recollections that you have regarding the individual and his family in a window. Next you will be asked to describe the person with five words. Finally, you will be asked about a projected relationship with the individual. PLEASE USE ONLY YOUR MEMORY OF INFORMATION  FROM  THE PREVIOUS PAGES. DO NOT USE INFORMATION PROVIDED ON THIS PAGE IN YOUR RESPONSES TO THE ITEMS BELOW. Where you are asked to produce five words to describe persons in the biographies, please write in personality trait words, not more recollections of the original biographies. Also, for the five point scales below, please avoid using the middle scale point, unless you are truly uncertain, and that should be rare. Finally, do not use the same scale point in response to many or most of the biographies. Though you may use the same scale point a few times, there should be variety in your scaled responses. All scales points should be used to some degree, except possibly the middle scale point.
