This covers a battery of standardized tests measuring memory, problem-solving, attention, and other thinking skills, given directly by a psychologist or physician rather than a technician. The clinician administers the tests face-to-face, then interprets the results and prepares a report. This type of testing is often used to evaluate concerns such as memory loss, a head injury, or the effects of a medical condition on thinking skills.
