The Meyers Neuropsychological Battery (MNB) integrates neuropsychological tests into a modified Rohling Interpretive Method (RIM) statistical approach combined with a profile matching approach.
The MNB is not dependent upon any specific neuropsychological battery of tests as the same statistics can be performed on domain level data. The MNB has an extensive database used for comparing your patient’s data with various patient groups. The current database is 10,000 subjects with 90+ comparison groups identified. The MNB uses objective statistical matching methods to assist the clinician in matching patient data to a comparison group. This statistical matching method is better than 90% accurate.
The tests that are included in the database are:
- WISC-IV/V/WAIS-III/IV (Ward 7 subtest short form)
- Forced Choice
- Animal Naming
- NAART (Revised)
- 1 Minute Estimation
- COWAT
- Dichotic Listening
- Sentence Repetition
- Judgement of Line Orientation
- Boston Naming
- Finger Tapping
- Finger Localization
- Trail Making Test
- Token Test
- Rey Complex Figure and Recognition Trial
- Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test
- Category Test-Victoria version / Full version
You may add your own tests as well. The MNB is very flexible and can accommodate new tests and new norms as the field of neuropsychology changes. The MNB also as a customizable report generator to assist the clinician in report writing.
See short discussion of the MNS and patterns of impairment in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) (Aug 2005).
