Tests Standardized tests are administered to address specific referral questions for diverse patient populations. Services are provided for individuals presenting withclosed head injuries, dementia disorder, cognitive disorder, and mood disorder. Test results may determine the functional impact of cognitive dysfunction upon work ability, academics, and instrumental activities of daily life (ADL’s). Research-based assessments ensure that all tests, methods, and scoring procedures are uniform and precise, and that conclusions drawn from test results will be valid and reliable. Tests of differing lengths are used in our assessment, depending on the nature of the referral. Patients can expect to participate in several hours of testing.
