r/Neuropsychology
Neuropsychology is both an experimental and clinical branch of psychology that aims to understand how cognitive functions (memory, attention, etc.) and behavior are related to brain structure and functioning. Although the focus is typically on how injuries or illnesses of the brain (i.e., pathological functions) affect cognition and behavior, it also includes the study normal (i.e., non-pathological) functioning, cognition, and behavior.

r/Neuropsychology Subreddit Rules
Do not solicit or provide medical recommendations, diagnoses, or test interpretations.
Informational requests about a personal experience, symptom, or disorder, are allowed on this subreddit (e.g., “why is memantine used to treat dementia?”). However, we do not allow content seeking/providing specific medical advice, test scores/interpretations, or treatment recommendations. This includes describing a symptom and asking about it's meaning. If you need medical recommendations, please speak to your healthcare providers as they will be best equipped to help you with your care needs.
Posts must be related to neuropsychology.
Relevant posts must have content that includes a clear connection between cognition, behavior, and some aspect of neurological functioning. This includes, but is not limited to: genetics, neurochemistry, neuroanatomy, and neuroimaging. If either of these connections is missing (or vague) then the post will be removed and the OP encouraged to update their content appropriately. Other appropriate topics include: psychometrics and testing, book and research articles, professional development.
Overly specific professional development questions are only allowed in the weekly megathread
Although part of the subreddit's goal is professional development, often these questions are overly specific and don't provide a benefit to the community as a whole. Because of this, specific professional development questions (education and coursework, training recommendations, etc.) are only allowed to be posted in the weekly megathread that appears every Saturday at 9AM PST.
Do not violate test security by posting test scores or information regarding test administration.
Any posts and/or comments that are clearly and reasonably violating test security and/or copyright law will be removed. General discussion of specific assessments and their use are acceptable (e.g., "what are some commonplace memory assessments?"), but anything that would invalidate the use of a measure (e.g., description of how specific sub-scales are calculated) on a patient is strictly prohibited.
Posts and comments should be high quality.
Discussion-based posts and/or questions should be high quality - using scientific terminology and phrasing, avoiding sensationalized claims, and always include peer-reviewed research when presenting a personal perspective/theory as the focus of the discussion and/or question. Any low-effort posts will be removed - including posts designed to draw participation from the subreddit onto to personal blogs, youtube channels, etc.
Content farming is not allows and research study recruitment must be pre-approved by the moderators.
Content farming (e.g., posting links to blogs, homework help) is not allowed. Research study recruitment must be pre-approved by the moderators.
Be respectful and kind to one another.
There is nothing wrong with disagreement or arguing, but keep it respectful and civil. Any instances of naming calling, hate speech, or otherwise unkind behavior will not be tolerated.
Refrain from personal anecdotes
As this is a science-based subreddit, please refrain from posting personal anecdotes. Back up any claims by citing the empirical research supporting that claim.
