Psychoeducational & Mathematics Testing
Adena offers psychoeducational, neuropsychological, and academic testing to help parents understand how their child learns, to determine their child's learning strengths and weaknesses, and to identify reasons why their child may be struggling in math. Adena develops a specialized test battery for each child, which may take the form of targeted testing, an academic mathematics assessment, or a comprehensive psychoeducational assessment.
Academic Math Testing
Using a combination of formal and informal measures, Adena assesses students math skills with regard to conceptual understanding, procedural/calculation skills, problem solving abilities. These data can help to identify areas which may require remediation.

- Cognitive abilities -- How your child thinks and reasons both verbally and spatially
- Neuropsychological processing -- How your child's brain processes information related to learning (e.g., auditory processing, visual processing, executive functioning)
- Mathematics skills -- How your child performs on rote and higher-level tasks in math
- Social-emotional functioning -- How your child views him/herself as learner, how your child experiences learning emotionally
