"If you, your child or a loved one has been told that you need a neuropsychological test you will need to find a neuropsychologist. A neuropsychological test (sometimes called a neuropsychological exam or evaluation) is an in-depth assessment of skills and abilities linked to brain function. The test measures such areas as attention, problem solving, memory, language, I.Q., visual-spatial skills, academic skills, and social-emotional functioning. After the neuropsychologist runs their tests they render a diagnosis and develop a treatment plan.
Anyone seeking care from a neuropsychologist should look for a credentialed mental health professional. The American Board of Clinical Neuropsychology and the American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology are the organizations that certify these professionals."
