Neuropsychological assessment is a trying and complicated administer.

Since formal test data on the surface appear unambiguous and objective, they may fall into the problem of overemphasizing tests and their scores and underemphasizing all the factors that affect the validity, reliability, and interpretability of test data. But interpretation is far from undemanding, and a pragmatic application of assessment consequences requires attention to a multitude of issues.
