Computerized Neurocognitive Battery (CNB)ΒΆ
The CNB is no longer administered to participants
Developed in the Brain Behavior Lab at Penn, the CNB is a series of computerized tests that measure accuracy and speed of performance in major domains of cognition, including social-cognition. Battery measures the executive functions of abstraction and mental flexibility, attention, and working memory, episodic memory for words, faces and figures, intellectual functioning including verbal and nonverbal reasoning and spatial orientation, facial emotion processing and sensorimotor and motor speed. The participant completes this test on the computer with oversight by a research team member.
Domains Assessed: Attention Problems and Hyperactivity, Cognitive and Executive Function, Motor/Sensorimotor Function, Short Term Memory, Verbal Learning, Working Memory
Note: The CNB is administered to participants ages 6+.
