recording queries
I noticed that in the general administration guidelines, a distinction is made between queries, prompts, and repetition (WAIS-IV manual, p. 41). I was wondering about the first question in the hw asking about queries, is it only queries that should be addressed or any type of feedback including prompts and repetition?

The distinction between queries, prompts, and repetition can be helpful when trying to qualitatively understand the examinee's process during assessment. (Q), (P), and (R) is the 'official' notation, but if you are writing everything verbatim, you will be able to tell what you were doing anyway, even if you write the wrong notation on the fly. With practice, you will learn the flavor of a subtest and what kinds of interjections are used. For instance, in vocab, you may (Q) a vague response as well as (R) the intended word.
However, for the purposes of all of our assignments, a query more generally refers to any kind of interjection that an examiner gives.
