Detailed Description+

Assesses learning ability in the context of non-verbal memory material.
Disorders of memory play an important part in many clinical disorders and injuries. They have a major impact on the patient’s quality of life and can cause significant difficulties both in private life and at work. Careful neuropsychological assessment and differentiation of these memory impairments is particularly important in predicting the course of the illness, in assessing the patient’s occupational and social prospects and in planning suitable rehabilitation measures. The test is therefore used mainly in clinical neuropsychology.
