Abstract
As an integrated neuroscientific discipline, neuropsychology encompasses the study of brain behavior relationships. Within the scope of clinical practice, neuropsychological assessment involves measurement of higher order dimensions of cognition, principally in the domains of attention and executive functions, learning and memory, language and communication, and spatial cognition. In this chapter, we address nonverbal assessment in these core neuropsychological domains, noting that related areas of testing commonly included in neuropsychological batteries (e.g., appraisal of intelligence, personality, and psychopathology) are described elsewhere in this volume and that testing of lower sensory and motor functions already tends to be somewhat independent of language.
