Frequently Asked Questions
What is a neuropsychological assessment?
This assessment examines the cognitive functions controlled by the brain (attention, executive functions, reasoning, language, memory, and learning abilities) using psychometric tests. It helps establish a profile of strengths and weaknesses, identify the source of difficulties, refine a diagnosis, and provide recommendations.
Who is the assessment for?
Children, adolescents and adults. At Clinique Médicale 360 – Mile-Ex, we offer assessments tailored to each age group.
How long does an assessment take?
On average, 4 to 6 hours for school-aged children, adolescents and adults, and 2 to 3 hours for preschoolers. However, the entire process is spread over several appointments (questionnaires, assessment meeting, analysis, review meeting and submission of the report).
Why should I consult?
The most common reasons are ADHD, learning disabilities, giftedness, intellectual developmental disorder, and memory concerns.
Is the assessment done in a single visit?
The assessment takes place in several stages to ensure a thorough analysis: an initial interview, completion of questionnaires, an assessment meeting, scoring and analysis, a follow-up meeting, and finally, the delivery of a written report. Neuropsychological testing is usually conducted in a single session, but in some cases, multiple sessions may be necessary to accommodate the individual’s pace.
