Neuropsychological assessment tools
Neuropsychological assessment tools are specialized tests used by psychologists to evaluate how the brain functions related to thinking, memory, attention, problem-solving, and other mental processes. These tools help identify strengths and weaknesses in cognitive abilities, often to diagnose conditions or plan treatments. They include questionnaires, paper-and-pencil tasks, and computerized tests that assess various skills. The results provide a detailed picture of brain performance, guiding clinicians in understanding neurological or psychological issues affecting daily life and informing appropriate interventions.
