| Full description: |
This workshop aims at providing training to the students that took the theoretical course on cross-cultural neuropsychological assessment. The workshop will review the elements of the assessment that were discussed in the theoretical course: history taking, interview, selection of tests and a review of some of the tests that were seen in the theoretical course. It provides the students with hands-on experience in the clinical field, teaching them what information to take, how to conduct an interview and how to administer tests. The use of role-play is a key element in this workshop. The objectives of this course are that students: a) acquire abilities in conducting a clinical interview with a culturally different client; b) gain experience in the knowledge and administration of the appropriate tests for this population. |
