DESCRIPTION:The administration of neuropsychological tests is a core part 
 of neuropsychological assessment. By measuring cognition functioning\, neu
 ropsychological tests are carried out to examine the extent of impairment 
 caused by brain injury or neurological/psychiatric illness. Aspects of cog
 nitive functioning that are assessed typically include memory\, intelligen
 ce\, language\, visuoperception\, attention\, and executive-function. A br
 ief introduction will be provided to neuropsychological tests on perceptio
 n\, attention\, and executive function with some examples of commonly used
  tests\, e.g. d-2 attention endurance test\, Stroop task\,Trail-making tes
 t\, etc.
