dc.description.abstract© The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.The chapter addresses the neuropsychological assessment of children and how it can offer fundamental subsidies to guide the intervention. The neuropsychological assessment enables understanding a cognitive profile and collaborates in identifying neurodevelopmental disorders, learning, and behavioral difficulties. In childhood, school and family are the main sources of referrals, providing information about academic and behavioral problems. Understanding child development and the impact of neurological injuries at different stages of development is fundamental to the professionals working in this area. In the process, different types of measures are used, such as neuropsychological tests, functional measures such as standardized scales and inventories, as well as interviews with parents and teachers and direct observation, which are important sources of complementary information. In this sense, the evaluation requires a global analysis that considers clinical observations, individual history, and sociocultural context. The integration of all the information collected is essential to draw a comprehensive neuropsychological profile, guide the neuropsychological intervention process, and support the follow-up of the results obtained. The chapter provides a clinical anamnesis interview for children.
