Abstract

We conducted a national survey of psychologists who offer neuropsychological services to determine levels of training, current practices, and views on professional issues. All subjects were listed in the National Register of Health Service Providers in Psychology and/or the American Psychological Association Directory as having some affiliation with neuropsychology. Results suggest marked diversity within the field, with the modal practitioner being minimally involved in neuropsychological activities. We also compare clinicians with varying involvement and experience in neuropsychology and analyze the concentration of practitioners by geographic regions. We compare our results to those obtained in prior surveys and discuss implications of the findings. © 1990.
