Psychological Assessments

Cognitive Assessment

A cognitive assessment, also known as an intelligence quotient (IQ) test or psychometric assessment, helps to identify an individual’s potential for learning and their preferred learning style. Cognitive assessments help to determine strengths and weaknesses in several cognitive areas including Verbal Comprehension, Visual Spatial skills, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory, Processing Speed, and a Full Scale IQ score that represents the most reliable measure of general intellectual ability.
