Mar, Harvey
National Consortium on Deaf-Blindness
This fact sheet provides answers to frequently asked questions about psychological evaluations for infants, children and adults who are deaf-blind, we hope to clarify the evaluation process and the active roles that may be taken by everyone who is involved--family members, professionals, educators, and the student. Finally, by discussing quality indicators and desired outcomes, we present ways to view and use the evaluation process so it will benefit the student to the greatest degree possible.
