[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The real issues with incorrect diagnoses from a neuropsych could be: 1. Causing the child to receive ineffective treatment 2. It may be difficult to repeat the testing too soon due to practice effects 3. The time and energy spent including time off work and school[/quote] Are you more or less likely to get an incorrect diagnosis if you have a neuropsych eval as opposed to not having one? Seems like more information will always aid in proper diagnosis. [/quote] Eventually sure. The extent to which harm occurs depends on different factors. For example focusing on compliance instead of skill building for an autistic kid can make things worse.[/quote]
