I have known several instructors who use an open book strategy, even for introductory psychology. Often the grade scale is the same as it would be for traditional closed-books tests. However, in this case, the student would be getting dispensation not offered to other students.
Unfortunately that's inherent in the ADA procedures.
The questions are whether the special treatment is justified by a documented condition and whether the alternative assessment will produce equivalent results (this is the hard one).
