More Information on Neuropsychological Testing
Neuropsychological evaluation results may support you/your child in various ways. Please note that while these tests provide insight into areas of cognitive strengths and weaknesses, the tests administered through KSOC are conducted for research purposes and are not equivalent to comprehensive testing. Comprehensive testing can help school-aged children by identifying specific learning disabilities, cognitive strengths and weaknesses, and providing tailored recommendations for educational support and interventions. These evaluations can also guide the development of individualized education plans (IEPs) to enhance learning outcomes.
For adults with Kabuki syndrome, neuropsychological evaluations can assist in diagnosing cognitive impairments, informing treatment plans, and providing strategies to manage daily challenges. They can also aid in vocational planning, support accommodations in the workplace, or help with Social Security Disability (SSD) benefit claims.
