Boston Naming Test

The Boston Naming Test is a psychological assessment used to evaluate a person's ability to name objects. During the test, individuals are shown a series of pictures, and they are asked to identify each item. It's often used to help diagnose language disorders, such as aphasia, which can occur after a stroke or brain injury. The test assesses both the accuracy of naming and the time taken to respond, providing insights into language function and cognitive abilities. It is a valuable tool for clinicians to understand and measure language skills in patients.
