摘要

Study aims were to 1) determine the characteristics and reasons for referral for Clinical Neuropsychological Assessment (CNA) and 2) characterize the findings and recommendations contained in the CNA reports, of clients attending a youth mental health service. File audit of all CNA reports (N = 140) of youth attending a mental health service. Cognitive performances on neuropsychological tests that were administered to 50% of clients were examined. Referral reasons, findings, and recommendations for future treatment were coded and described from neuropsychological files. Age of clients referred for CNA ranged from 13-29, the majority were male (62.5%), referred primarily from the early psychosis clinic (63.2%), and had a mean number of 3.5 presenting problems. Cognitive performances ranged from extremely low to very superior. Mean number of reasons for referral was 2, with treatment recommendation (55%) and diagnostic clarification (50.7%) being the most common. Mean number of findings from CNA was 5.8; most commonly, a diagnosis of clinically meaningful cognitive impairment (85%), followed by a recommendations for additional services/investigations (77.1%). CNA provides diagnostic clarification and treatment recommendations for youth receiving mental health treatment. Future studies should examine the cost-effectiveness, implementation, and objective impact of CNA in clinical practice.
