Will the judge consider a claimant’s ability to do work-related activities on a day-to-day basis in a regular work setting?

Based on a doctor’s examination of how the Claimant's mental/emotional capabilities were affected by the impairment(s), and considering the medical history, the chronicity of findings (or lack thereof), and the expected duration of any work-related limitations, but not the Claimant's age, sex or work experience, the judge will examine a Claimant’s mental abilities and aptitudes to do skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled work.
