Essentials of NEPSY Assessment
Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills you need to confidently
administer, score, and interpret the NEPSY.
The NEPSY is widely used by school psychologists, neuropsychologists,
and research psychologists to assess children ages 3-12 with developmental
disabilities and to develop effective intervention strategies.
It provides comprehensive assessment over five functional domains:
Attention/Executive Functions, Language, Sensorimotor Functions,
Visuospatial Processing, and Memory and Learning. To use the test
properly, professionals need an authoritative source of advice
and guidance on how to administer, score, and interpret this test.
Authored by the creators of the NEPSY, Essentials of NEPSY
Assessment is that source.
Like all the volumes in the Essentials
of Psychological Assessment series, this book is designed
to help students and mental health professionals quickly acquire
the knowledge and skills they need to make optimal use of a major
psychological assessment instrument. Each concise chapter features
numerous callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points,
and extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions
that help you gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information
covered. The book also serves as a resource for advice on specific
questions you may have during an assessment.
Essentials of NEPSY Assessment includes vital information
about the NEPSY, including the advantage of being able to assess
a child across functions and modalities. The authors provide step-by-step
guidance on test administration, scoring, and interpretation,
along with their expert assessment of the test's relative strengths
and weaknesses, valuable advice on its clinical applications,
and several illuminating case reports.
