This ambitious guide reviews innovative technologies enhancing neuropsychological testing. It argues that standard batteries, some nearly a century old, are outdated in the era of neuroimaging, genomics, psychophysiology, and informatics. The text presents digital measures that allow for more efficient administration, accurate data collection, and broader clinical applications. Key themes include ecological validity and evidence-based science, exploring advancements such as virtual environments, social cognition assessment, and a focus on situational reliability over lab-created constructs. The chapters illustrate how high-tech assessment tools can complement traditional measures without outright replacement. Topics covered include the evolution of neuropsychological testing, current applications of computer-based assessments, the strengths and limitations of simulation technology, the role of teleneuropsychology in reaching remote clients, the potential of gaming technologies in neurocognitive rehabilitation, and how technology can transform test data into actionable information across specialties. This guide positions neuropsychologists, clinical psychologists, and rehabilitation specialists at the forefront of assessment measures and processes, leading to more accurate testing, interdisciplinary collaboration, and valid outcomes.
