Abstract

This article provides an introduction to the process approach to neuropsychological evaluation which emphasizes the importance of careful observation of the subject's behavior as he or she formulates and tries out solutions to the testing tasks presented. The evaluation of the methods and trial - and - error patterns by which the subject arrives at solutions to the problems presented constitute a powerful diagnostic technique of nuropsychological functionning. The information obtained in this manner is useful for clinical intervention strategies as well as for research of dysfunction patterns underlying neurological disease.
