Abstract
For purposes of studying the development of test batteries in neuropsychology, it is instructive to look at the progression of two dimensions through four eras in the evolution of brain function evaluation methodologies. The first dimension concerns the use of standardized versus unstandardized methods of assessment; while the second dimension involves qualitative versus quantitative techniques of evaluation.
