Questions and instructions

Question pretext
This next section will require additional concentration. I will read to you some stories about people with varying levels of difficulties in different areas of health. I want you to think about these people's experiences as if they were your own. Once I have finished reading each story, I will ask you to rate what happened in the story.
I would like to know how you view each story and rate how much of a problem or difficulty the person described has in that area of health in the same way that you described your own health to me earlier. While giving the rating, think of the person in the story as someone who is of your age and background
