Questions that a neuropsychological evaluation can answer
- What functional strengths and deficits does the child have?
- How can the child’s well-developed skills enable compensatory skills to develop?
- Are there signs of a focal deficit, developmental disorder, or a specific syndrome?
- What is the child’s baseline level of functioning to compare to future levels of functioning?
- What effect will the child’s deficits have on academic performance and social/emotional adjustment?
- How can the environment be best educated about the child’s strengths and deficits, and intervention be planned at school, home, and in the social milieu?
- What is the child’s response to interventions and treatments?
