A news story is making the round on how the U.S. Pentagon initiated a program of neuropsychological testing using pretest (i.e., prior to deployment to combat areas) and posttest (i.e., return from deployment) but apparently has stopped administering the posttest because its false positive rate is too high. For one source see:
http://www.intelihealth.com/IH/ihtIH/EMIHC267/333/8014/1369167.html?d=dmtICNNews The test in question is called the "Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metris" or ANAM. Anyone familiar with it? -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
