About this Research Topic
We extend an invitation to researchers in the field of neuropsychology and related disciplines to contribute to an upcoming research topic focusing on the role of neuropsychological tests in detecting cognitive decline and creating cognitive profiles for disease identification.
Background: Neuropsychological tests serve as invaluable tools in the detection of cognitive decline associated with various diseases. These tests are renowned for their sensitivity, allowing for the identification of subtle cognitive changes that may be indicative of underlying health conditions. Moreover, they enable the construction of detailed cognitive profiles, providing insights into the impact of different diseases on cognitive functioning.
Objectives: The primary objective of this research topic is to explore the unique role of neuropsychological tests in recognizing cognitive decline and in the creation of cognitive profiles for the identification of diverse diseases. We aim to delve into the methodologies employed in utilizing these tests and understand how they contribute to our comprehension of the cognitive aspects associated with various medical conditions. Join us in contributing to the advancement of knowledge regarding neuropsychological tests, their sensitivity in detecting cognitive decline, and their crucial role in creating cognitive profiles for the identification of different diseases.
We Encourage Submissions That:
1. Present novel research papers showcasing the application of neuropsychological tests in detecting cognitive decline.
2. Explore the creation of cognitive profiles for disease identification using neuropsychological assessments.
3. Investigate the methodologies and approaches employed in using neuropsychological tests in disease-specific contexts.
