Written by a foremost expert in the field, this hands-on, evidence-based
guide describes how to conduct a comprehensive forensic
neuropsychological evaluation and provide expert testimony. All steps
are covered--from selecting, scoring, and interpreting tests to writing
reports and responding to cross-examination--with special attention to
assessing noncredible performance. The book identifies seven common
flaws of forensic neuropsychological reports and shows how to avoid
them. Excerpts from testimony transcripts illustrate ways
neuropsychologists can protect their reports from attack. Also featured
are case illustrations and a sample report.
