LD/ADHD Assessment

 

ADHD Assessment

There is no single test or questionnaire that can be given to determine whether or not someone meets the criteria for ADHD. We use a multimodal approach - that is to say, we use a battery of tests in order to evaluate a client's performance across different types of activities. The battery of tests varies from person-to-person, but frequently includes the following:

  • intake interview (20-30 minutes)<
  • 2 administrations of a computer-based test (2 hours)
  • measure of cognitive ability (2 hours)<
  • in-depth interview (1-2 hours)
  • referral to consult with a psychiatrist for medication evaluation

LD ASSESSMENTS

LD evaluations require a battery of tests that assess both cognitive abilities and scholastic achievement. In addition, other tests may be administered as needed. The battery of tests varies from person-to-person, but frequently includes the following:

  • intake interview (20-30 minutes)
  • cognitive ability & achievement battery (4 hours)
  • measure of cognitive ability (2 hours)
  • in-depth interview (1-2 hours)
