Consistency in recalling features of former head injuries: retrospective questionnaire vs. interview retest.
The probability and features of memory concerning former head injuries with loss of consciousness was assessed in two formats: a group-test questionnaire and a retest using personal individual interview. Results are given concerning the greater likelihood of reporting short 'permanent' retrograde amnesias in the interview.
