Differences in culture, language and education confounded the interpretation of behavioural responses. These problems have implications for all psychological assessments
Luna's Neuropsychological Investigation — Adaptations for Use with White English-Speaking South African Adults
Traditionally, South Africa has followed the West in using quantitative psychometric procedures for Neuropsychological Assessments. Procedures developed in other parts of the world, however, may yield further valuable information.

It is therefore a…
