The Applied Psychology Competence Center makes use of a laboratory to assess cognitive function and to conduct targeted expert investigations in the psychological field; it also intervenes for specific consultations.
- Neuropsychological assessment consists of clinical observation and administration of standardized tests constructed to specifically assess different cognitive domains such as attention, memory, executive functions, language, gnosic-perceptual and praxic functions. Performance is statistically adjusted for age, gender, and educational background and provides a picture of cognitive functioning whose efficiency enables one to process information from the surrounding environment and act appropriately and functionally in the world.
- Expert evaluation in the area of traffic concerns anyone who has had a driver's license revoked as a precautionary measure and for whom a psychological traffic evaluation has been requested to determine fitness to drive. The following situations may lead to a request for an expert investigation in the area of traffic psychology: cancellation of a probationary driver's license, repeated withdrawals, one or more serious driving errors, one or more driving while incapacitated (alcohol/drugs, in this case usually in conjunction with a medical fitness assessment).
