Integrated
Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test
by Joseph A. Sandford, Ph.D.
IVA+Plus is a combined auditory and visual
continuous performance test designed to help the clinician
make an accurate diagnosis of ADHD. Following the diagnostic
criteria outlined in the DSM-IV, IVA+Plus provides data to
help the clinician diagnose and differentiate between the
four sub-types of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder –
ADHD, Predominantly Inattentive Type (formerly called ADD),
ADHD Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type, ADHD Combined
Type, and ADHD Not Otherwise Specified.
