  RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY OFFER
  Neuropsychological assessment is a cognitive evaluation that determines the level of performance in different areas such as attention, memory and reasoning, among others.

Our group employs two scientifically tested neuropsychological protocols: MENTFLEX and CANTAB.

MENTFLEX, designed by our group, consists of highly efficient traditional paper and pencil tests and backed by research results of several projects of the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation and the Balearic Government. CANTAB is a computerized battery that has been used for more than 20 years, created at the University of Cambridge, and has become the world leader in its field, being used by over 500 academic institutions worldwide and quoted in over 600 scientific papers.

 
   Neuropsychological assessment
 

Neuropsychological tests consist of a series of questions, remembering information, making perceptual and memory judgments on a variety of stimuli, recalling sequences, responding to different patterns and learning simple tasks. Neuropsychological assessment is used to:

- The assesment of memory disorders in Alzheimer patients and other dementias
- The evaluation of neuropsychological deficits (eg, memory, attention, language, calculation, perception, reasoning,etc.) related to brain damage;
- Early, accurate and objective detection of neuropsychological abonormalities associated with normal and pathological aging.
-Assessing cognitive and affective symptoms in neuropsychiatric syndromes
- Obtaining an expert report if needed by other professionals, to justify the person“s mental health.

Neuropsychological testing is conducted in Spanish, Catalan or English language, at the request of the applicant

Our group, with the advice and cooperation of a number of international experts, has years of experience in neuropsychological research, and our research work is published in prestigious international journals. For a more detailed information about our projects click on the link below:
