Ri. Naugle et Aj. Mcsweeny, MORE THOUGHTS ON THE PRACTICE OF ROUTINELY APPENDING RAW DATA TO REPORTS - RESPONSE, Clinical neuropsychologist, 10(3), 1996, pp. 313-314
Our initial paper arguing against the practice of routinely appending
raw data to reports of neuropsychological examinations (Naugle & McSwe
eny, 1995) elicited two responses in favor of doing so (Freides, 1995;
Matarazzo, 1995). This paper reviews the major points raised by those
two writers and provides our responses to their objections. We contin
ue to recommend that the type and amount of data to be included with a
report be tailored to the needs and competency of the referral source
who receives that report.
