Long CRIq - Cognitive Reserve Index questionnaire

Instructions:

Each item refers to activities carried out regularly throughout adult life (i.e. from 18 years onwards)
All paid activities are excluded from this section (for paid activities, return to CRI-WorkingActivity).
Register answers according to the frequency mentioned for each activity (e.g., weakly, monthly, annual)
If over the participants lifespan the activity changed in frequency in a significant manner, only the period (in number of years) of the highest frequency is to be considered. For example, if a person drove a car every day for 40 years, but in the following 15 years he/she did so only once or twice a week, than the answer is Often/Always for 40 years.
The field Years refers to the number of years in which the mentioned activity has been carried out Often/Always, overstating according to a scale of 5 to 5 years (5-10-15-20, etc.). For example, whether a person regularly reads a newspaper for 27 years, will be registered Often/Always for 30 years, even if he/she has stopped reading for many years.
