Clinical content you type
ADHD eval for college student. long hx of missed deadlines, losing materials, slow task start, drifting during lectures. parent says this has been there since middle school. teacher comments from prior records mention incomplete independent work + careless errors. Rating scales suggest cross-setting inattention/executive concerns rather than isolated test anxiety. CPT-3 pattern fits lapses in sustained attention + inconsistent response control, which matches day-to-day missed details and losing track during longer tasks. testing: cooperative, socially appropriate, fidgeted with sleeve, looked away during longer directions, needed repetition and occasional redirection back to task.
Clinical content you type
Neuropsych consult after concussion. referral q = memory/attention complaints affecting work. pace in daily life is slower and client loses track during multi-step tasks. testing behavior: effort good, pace slow, frustration rose on timed tasks but stayed engaged. RBANS shows intact basic attention but weaker immediate memory and delayed recall than expected, with recognition helping. Trail Making pattern suggests slowed visual scanning/set shifting more than inability to understand task demands. PHQ-9/GAD-7 suggest mood symptoms are relevant and may worsen efficiency, but they do not fully explain the cognitive pattern.
Clinical content you type
Turn completed eval into feedback letter for family + referring therapist. emphasize attention/executive findings, strengths in reasoning and verbal discussion, practical recs for school/work planning, written reminders, chunking, and f/u psychiatry consult. keep it plain language and not overly technical.

How LocalScribe Helps Assessment Workflows
Testing and neuropsych reports are usually built from interviews, records, observations, score tables, and interpretation notes before the writing even starts. LocalScribe fits that part of the workflow especially well by helping you organize source material into sections, tables, summaries, and follow-up documents without moving the drafting process into a cloud-first tool.
Custom Setup for Assessment Work
Feature focus
Custom terminology library
Starter packs for psychological testing and neuropsychology can be expanded with your own report phrasing, shorthand, validity language, and recurring ways of describing findings across domains.
Terminology examples
- PVT = performance validity testing language covering engagement, response consistency, and interpretive caution
- cross-setting pattern = summary wording that links interview, rating scale, observation, and testing findings across settings
- integrated summary = report synthesis language that pulls together history, observations, testing, and functional implications without repeating each section verbatim
Feature focus
Test measures library
The test measures library helps LocalScribe understand batteries, subtests, score types, and interpretation patterns so score tables and findings sections start from real structure instead of generic output.
Measure examples
- RBANS = measure entry with domains, score types, and interpretation notes for memory and attention findings
- CPT-3 = performance-based attention measure saved with the score labels and interpretation language you actually use
- Trail Making Test = timed executive-function measure that can be stored with shorthand, score notes, and practical meaning
Feature focus
Custom writing style
Save the tone and level of technicality you want for different outputs, whether that means formal report prose, cautious interpretive language, or a more readable parent-facing explanation.
Writing-style examples
- report prose = formal narrative language that sounds like a polished evaluation rather than bullet-point notes
- interpretive caution = measured wording when findings are mixed, validity is limited, or conclusions need appropriate restraint
- reader-friendly summary = plain-language explanation for families, referral sources, or handoff documents built from the same evaluation
Assessment Workflows
Workflow setup
Bring real assessment source material into the drafting workflow.
Use LocalScribe to turn intake packets, referral questions, observations, medical records, rating scales, and rough interpretation notes into organized report sections instead of rewriting everything from scratch.
Source material examples
- intake packets = history forms, symptom descriptions, and referral context gathered before writing begins
- record review = school, medical, psychiatric, or prior-evaluation material that needs to be synthesized into narrative form
- behavioral observations = testing-session observations that shape interpretation, validity language, and functional meaning
Workflow setup
Bring source files directly into the assessment workflow.
Assessment drafting often depends on material that already exists in other formats. LocalScribe can work from attached PDFs, Excel files, Word documents, text exports, and audio files so the draft has more complete context to work from.
Attachment examples
- PDFs = prior reports, records, and rating-scale exports that need to be referenced during drafting
- Excel / spreadsheets = score tables, subtest data, or structured summaries that should carry forward into the report
- Word and audio files = interview notes, referral summaries, and uploaded audio that can be transcribed for use in the drafting workflow
Template setup
Set up templates for the full report or only the sections you repeat most.
Assessment workflows often need more than one template. You can build full report templates, feedback-letter templates, and smaller partial templates for sections that repeat across cases. Partial templates are especially useful for pieces like behavioral observations, findings summaries, validity language, or recommendations.
- Referral Question: State the reason for evaluation and the practical questions the report is meant to answer in one short narrative paragraph.
- Behavioral Observations: Describe engagement, pacing, frustration tolerance, and task behavior in concise clinical prose without falling back on generic testing language.
- Findings Summary: Summarize the main score patterns and explain what they may mean clinically, using the table as support rather than as the whole section.
- Recommendations: End with practical next steps tied to the findings and written for the intended reader.
Workflow setup
Revise a report without starting over from scratch.
Assessment work often involves refining something you already drafted. LocalScribe can help shorten a section, make the language more reader-friendly, tighten the prose, or add specific terminology and phrasing you want reflected in the final report.
Refinement examples
- adjust reading level = rewrite a feedback section or summary in plainer language for families, patients, or referral partners
- add preferred phrasing = revise a draft so it uses the report language, terms, or interpretive wording you want included
- shorten or tighten = make a section more concise when a report is too long, repetitive, or more technical than needed
Custom Templates for Assessment Workflows
Custom templates combine your preferred section structure with the writing guidance you want used under each header.

Example generated report excerpt
Referral Question
The client was referred for evaluation because of longstanding concerns involving attention, organization, and task completion that have affected performance across academic and daily settings.
Behavioral Observations
During the evaluation, the client was cooperative and generally engaged, though efficiency decreased as tasks became longer and more demanding. Mild slowing and occasional loss of task set were observed when sustained attention and working-memory demands increased.
| Measure | Domain | Score Type | Value | Descriptor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRIEF-2 | Working Memory | T-Score | 70 | Elevated |
| Coding | Processing Speed | Scaled Score | 6 | Below Average |
| List Recognition | Memory | Percentile | 50 | Average |
This is the kind of score table LocalScribe can support when the measures and scoring language are already defined in the test measures library.
Findings Summary
The overall pattern suggests reduced executive efficiency rather than a broad weakness across cognitive domains. Tasks that rely on sustained attention, organization, and working memory were more effortful and less consistent, while stronger reasoning and language skills remained available once the client was oriented and engaged.
That kind of section is often more useful than isolated score reporting because it explains how the different pieces of the case fit together.
Recommendations
Recommendations may include external structure for deadlines, smaller task chunks, written reminders, and follow-up consultation around attention and executive-functioning support needs.
