Need to Test Remotely?

Now you can have the freedom to administer the IVA-2 at multiple locations without having to pay full-price for additional stations. For a one-time fee, you can add a special license to administer the IVA-2 from a second location. This license automatically renews at no additional charge when you renew your IVA-2 license. The new IVA-2 remote testing option allows you to administer tests from other locations online, on your iPad  or even on your iPhone. Test data are uploaded back to your PC and are accessible only from your “master” IVA-2 license. Data are securely encrypted, and no PHI goes online.

Test on an iPad or iPhone!

Here’s how it works: from your IVA-2 license on your PC, you can generate codes to use IVA-2 test administrations you have purchased on your iPad or iPhone. You can then use the iPad or iPhone to administer those tests in a different location. The iPad or iPhone functions as a “clicker” so no external mouse is needed. You will, however, need headphones or external speakers. Once you have administered a test, the data will automatically upload back to your IVA-2 PC in the office for analysis and reports.

Test online!

If you prefer to administer your tests online, you can invest in an online remote testing license, which allows you to administer tests remotely from the Internet on any computer that supports the Chrome browser and Flash, including Macs or Surface Pros. As is the case with the iPad remote testing license, the data are automatically uploaded back to your IVA-2 PC once a test is completed. Test data are stored only on your actual IVA PC, not on the Internet or the remote testing device.

FAQs

IVA-2 and Malingering

Why a Test is Needed

Making a clinical diagnosis of ADHD can be quite complex. In some cases, ADHD may be confused with some other disorder, poor motivation during testing, malingering, or other psychosocial factors that do not pertain to ADHD (i.e., false positives).In these cases the client could potentially receive inappropriate treatment. In other cases, there is a risk of false negatives, which could delay necessary treatment. Recent research found that almost 50% of individuals with ADHD are never treated and remain undiagnosed. The accurate diagnosis of ADHD warrants a comprehensive and thorough evaluation. The IVA-2 helps clinicians in their diagnostic decision making process, providing them with quantifiable data for them to consider as a component of their comprehensive evaluation.

The IVA-2 language option allows the examiner to administer the test in English, Spanish, Chinese, Swedish, Canadian French , or Japanese. If any of these languages is selected from the IVA-2 language option screen, the written and spoken test instructions and test stimuli will be presented in that language. The translations have been carefully prepared and recorded by native speakers. The Chinese translation includes the options to administer it in Cantonese (Traditional), Mandarin (Simplified), and Mandarin (Traditional) or Taiwanese dialects. For Spanish or Swedish, the ADHD Rating Scales will also be provided in the selected language. The rating scales are available both online and in printed format.

The IVA-2 language option also makes it possible to present the IVA-2 test stimuli (but not the instructions or the rating scales) in any of the following additional languages:

Arabic, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Norwegian, Pashto, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Swahili, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese, and Welsh.

When administering the test in any of these languages, the examiner can silence the spoken instructions, then translate them for the test taker as needed.

There are risks associated with diagnosing ADHD when the individual has some other type of disorder, is malingering, or has a decline in attentional functioning not due to ADHD (i.e., false positives). In this case, the person could potentially receive the wrong type of medication or the incorrect treatment for her problems. The risks associated with prescribing the incorrect medication or inappropriate treatments will vary from person to person and can have significant health consequences; thus, the accurate diagnosis of ADHD is important. For example, stimulant medications have FDA warnings pertaining to various health risks, including heart problems and sexual dysfunction. There is also a risk of incorrectly diagnosing individuals who have ADHD (i.e., false negatives). In this case, the necessary treatment could be delayed. These individuals would continue to suffer due to their attentional and response control impairments and the lack of appropriate treatment may significantly impair their psychosocial, academic, and work activities. In either of the above cases, the accurate diagnosis of ADHD warrants that individuals who present ADHD symptoms receive a comprehensive and thorough evaluation. Recent research found that almost 50% of individuals who have ADHD never receive any treatment, because they go through their lives undiagnosed.
