Informal observations
General observations of a child during interview
and while carrying out tests, the child’s strategy,
engagement, application and effort can be useful
as a means of interpreting results and in final
formulation. The validity and reliability of such

Assessment
Table 36.1
Areas of specialist knowledge and competency required when undertaking
neuropsychological assessment.
Area
Breadth/examples
Specialist knowledge
Fundamentals of neurobiology and
development
Neurobiological development; theoretical models of
brain/behaviour development, linkages to experiences and
atypical environments
Clinical developmental cognitive
neuroscience
Basic principles underlying common brain/behaviour
techniques, e.g. neuroimaging and electrophysiology
Development of sensory, motor and
cognitive neural systems
Neuroanatomy; neural cognitive systems and cognitive
trajectories; neural plasticity and reorganization
Developmental disorders, their
profiles and functional implications
Neuropsychological systems such as executive and memory
systems; and neuropsychological disorders such as epilepsy,
hydrocephalus, consequences of abuse and neglect, etc.
Neurodevelopmental assessment in
key phases
Infancy, early childhood/preschool, childhood,
adolescence
Rehabilitative practice in
educational and specialist settings
Professional issues for paediatric
neuropsychologists
Maintenance of competence; working in legal contexts,
etc.
Specific competencies
Test selection for specific
neuropsychological problems
Taking account of age, function, test psychometric
properties
Test administration and
behavioural observations during
testing
Test scoring
Test analysis and interpretation
Taking account of behaviour during testing, and feedback,
including writing both specialist reports and reports
comprehensible to carers
microanalysis may be questionable, so hypotheses
derived from this informal information need to be
treated cautiously and corroborated by interviews
and test results. Any observed behaviour may give
rise to a number of hypotheses. For example, a
child giving short, inadequate answers in the Ver-
bal Comprehension subtest of the WISC IV could
have: (i) a hearing problem; (ii) poor attention;
(iii) poor language comprehension; (iv) failure to
understand the meaning; (v) a memory problem;
(vi) speech difficulties; (vii) word finding difficul-
ties; (viii) problems with planning and initiating
a response; (ix) anxiety or depression; and (x)
oppositional behaviour, or a combination of these.
See Table 36.2 for a more detailed description of
observations and presenting problems [6].
