Neuropsychological assessment of an adult's minimal brain dysfunction: a case study.
A 38-yr.-old married man complained of difficulties in remembering and concentration. Related were difficulties in orienting himself in space, planning and completing visual-spatial tasks, and participating in complex perceptual-motor activities. Neurological and traditional psychological examinations indicated no organic deficits. Neuropsychological evaluation produced evidence suggestive of subtle cerebral dysfunction. Limitations of traditional assessment strategies to identify the clinical manifestations of adults' minimal brain dysfunction are briefly discussed.
