Assessment is a supplement to Tigers, Too, a book which offers comprehensive recommendations for addressing deficits associated with executive dysfunction, slow processing speed, and memory problems in students with ADHD, Tourette syndrome and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder – impairments which often interfere with a student’s academic, behavioral, and social functioning. Each highlighted test provides the diagnostician with the appropriate age range and a list of abilities required for the student to perform successfully. The administration of multiple tests will establish the pattern of strengths and weaknesses, commonality of approaches to problem solving, and analyses of responses. This information, combined with observations of test-taking behaviors, can be used to design and implement meaningful interventions.
