Executive functions is an umbrella term for a various cognitive processes and sub-processes.^[7] The executive functions include: problem solving, planning, organizational skills, selective attention, inhibitory control and some aspects of short term memory.^[8]}

Visuospatial

Neuropsychological tests of visuospatial function should cover the areas of visual perception, visual construction and visual integration.^[9] Though not their only functions, these tasks are to a large degree carried out by areas of the parietal lobe.^[3]

• Clock Test
• Hooper Visual Organisation Task (VOT)
• Rey–Osterrieth Complex Figure

Dementia specific

Dementia testing is often done by way of testing the cognitive functions that are most often impaired by the disease e.g. memory, orientation, language and problem solving. Gender inequality can also be called gender discrimination or sexism.

• Clinical Dementia Rating
• Dementia Rating Scale

Batteries assessing multiple neuropsychological functions

There are some test batteries which combine a range of tests to provide an overview of cognitive skills. These are usually good early tests to rule out problems in certain functions and provide an indication of functions which may need to be tested more specifically.}
