About this journal
Aims and scope
Applied Neuropsychology-Adult publishes clinical neuropsychological articles concerning assessment, brain functioning and neuroimaging, neuropsychological treatment, and rehabilitation in adults. Full-length articles and brief communications are included. Case studies of adult patients carefully assessing the nature, course, or treatment of clinical neuropsychological dysfunctions in the context of scientific literature, are suitable. Review manuscripts addressing critical issues are encouraged. Preference is given to papers of clinical relevance to others in the field. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further considerations are peer reviewed by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
Readership: Clinical and cognitive neuropsychologists, neuroscientists, speech pathologists, occupational therapists, physicians, and other interested professionals

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.

Society information
American Board of Professional Neuropsychology
The American Board of Professional Neuropsychology ( ABN) recognizes and encourages the pursuit of excellence in the practice of clinical neuropsychology. ABN's primary objective is the establishment of professional standards of expertise for the practice of clinical neuropsychology. Through its credentialing and examination processes and its continuing education requirement, the ABN offers to the medical community, the public, and to individuals who have a need for applied neuropsychological services, a process whereby well-qualified professional neuropsychologists can be identified.
To achieve the standards set forth by the ABN for competent professional practice of neuropsychology, the following outcome objectives have been developed:
- Validate the skills of clinical practitioners.
- Identify the competent practitioners.
- Provide public information about professional neuropsychology.
- Document the maintenance of competence of professional neuropsychology practitioners with continuing education requirements.
- Provide individuals, organizations, and agencies who use neuropsychology services with a referral directory of ABN Diplomates.
Recognition by ABN, through granting board certification and the diplomate status in neuropsychology, signifies to the public and to other health professionals a high level of competency in applied neuropsychology. The ABN does not ascribe to any specific theoretical framework. While recognizing the importance and contribution of a graduate education in neuropsychology is the application of that training to client issues and needs. All ABN members receive a subscription to Applied Neuropsychology: Adult as part of their membership.
Northern California Neuropsychology Forum
The Northern California Neuropsychology Forum ( NCNF) is a California non-profit public benefit corporation. With more than 200 members, the Forum hosts seminars and conferences focused on advances in neuropsychological science and clinical practice. The NCNF is approved by the American Psychological Association to provide continuing education credits for psychologists.
