- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
A wide range of functional areas must be assessed in order to accurately diagnose cognitive (Memory, Executive functioning, Visual processing, Auditory processing), learning (Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, Dysgraphia), or attention deficit disorders (ADD and ADHD). To begin, a person’s overall intelligence – or cognitive ability – must be measured. All of the processing areas must also be assessed. These areas include visual/auditory memory and discrimination, executive functioning, visual motor function, focus, working memory, and processing speed. Once these processing areas have been evaluated, the person’s achievement must be tested in various areas, such as speaking, listening, reading, writing and math. Before the diagnostic testing is complete, background information is examined, such as family history, medical history, school performance, emotional factors, motivational issues and his or her attention span. A proper assessment integrates all of the aspects mentioned above, with an additional focus on how a student engages in tasks, academic or otherwise. The main difference between a neuropsychological evaluation and a psychoeducational evaluation lies in the assessment of academic skills in addition to language and cognitive skills, memory, information processing, and executive functions.
