Report
Children, youth and adults are typically referred for psycho-educational assessments when there are concerns about their cognitive development or when they are not achieving at expected levels academically. A psycho-educational assessment, together with specific measures looking at attention and executive functioning, are used to help diagnose ADHD in children and youth who struggle with attention, focus, impulse control and organization.
