Clinical Mentation Evaluation

Focusing on a comprehensive approach to cognitive and behavioral testing, this groundbreaking book provides clinicians with a tiered system tailored for accurate mental status diagnosis. It addresses the complexities of neurologic syndrome presentations by emphasizing the degree and nature of cognitive and behavioral impairments rather than just lesion localization. The proposed evaluation system integrates behavioral, neurological, neuropsychiatric, and neuropsychological factors, offering a more targeted methodology for assessing mental function.
