Cognitive development is often assessed through various standardized tests and observational methods. Some common tools include:
- IQ Tests: Standardized tests that measure a range of cognitive abilities, including verbal and non-verbal skills. - Developmental Milestones: Observations of age-appropriate skills and behaviors, such as language acquisition and motor skills. - Neuropsychological Assessments: Detailed evaluations of specific cognitive functions, such as memory, attention, and executive functioning.
