[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 28212, member: 2423"] Could be depression, could be anxiety, could be a mood disorder, could be any number of things that only a psychiatrist can diagnose. Any competent psychiatrist will be able to refer to a competent neuropsychologist to do the testing (and neuropsychs do differ somewhat in what tests they choose to administer). All neuropsychologist evaluations are long (8 to 10 hours of testing) and always include an IQ test (generally the WISC-IV) and achievement testing (generally the Woodcock-Johnson-III). But then there are a slew of other tests on executive function, visual-motor integration, written output, psychological functioning, etc. that a neuropsychologist should administer. [/QUOTE]
