[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 41343, member: 2423"] ALL neuropscyh testing includes an IQ test (WISC-IV is the most common) and tests on executive function. The neuropsychologist testing would not be complete without these tests. The WISC-IV includes 10 subtests that make up four index scores (Verbal Comprehension, Perceptual Reasoning, Working Memory and Processing Speed), which give a lot of information about cognitive strengths and weaknesses. These tests can point to ADHD, learning disabilities and/or non-verbal learning disability (NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD)), a cluster of symptoms presumably related to poor ability to integrate infromation. NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) is determined by neuropsychological testing, whereas Asperger's is determined by detailed history and observation. There is overlap in these two conditions. Hope that helps. Please post again if you have further questions. [/QUOTE]
