ABSTRACT

For the purposes of this text, the term “forensic neuropsychology” is used broadly to refer to all adversarial administrative and judicial neuropsychological activities (Sweet, 1999; Sweet, Grote, & van Gorp, 2002). This broad definition extends beyond the contexts of civil and criminal litigation to include administrative determinations such as disability determination, worker’s compensation, competency, civil commitment, fitness for duty, educational due process, and other adversarial cases.
