Criteria for progressive modification of neurobehavioral batteries
Abstract
Six specific issues affecting the progressive modification of neurobehavioral test batteries used in field studies of populations exposed to neurotoxicants are discussed and test review recommendations are provided addressing each issue. The issues include: (a) general test review standards, (b) comprehensive assessment, (c) tailored batteries, (d) incorporation of new tests and techniques, (e) personnel and mechanisms for review, and (f) development of a battery assessing peripheral nervous system function.
