Session Abstract: This presentation will explore ways to conceptualize the neurological underpinnings of personality. The case of a 14-year-old adolescent male diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Predominately Inattentive Presentation (ADHD) will be examined to demonstrate the integration of an electrophysiological measure into a psychoeducational evaluation battery. Results from a quantitative electroencephalogram (QEEG) will be discussed in relation to findings from his Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Fifth Edition (WISC-V), Rorschach Performance Assessment System (RPAS), Conners-3, and Beck Youth Inventory - 2nd Edition. Diagnostic considerations, treatment implications as well as future clinical contributions will be discussed.
