Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Artificial intelligence, specifically large language models (LLMs), offers potential benefits for neuropsychology, including data analysis and assessment support. However, ethical integration requires addressing privacy, bias, and validation concerns.
Area Of Science
- Neuropsychology
- Artificial Intelligence
- Clinical Psychology
Background
- Growing excitement and apprehension surround artificial intelligence (AI), particularly large language models (LLMs), and their transformative potential in healthcare.
- Neuropsychologists face the challenge of integrating these advanced technologies into clinical practice responsibly.
Purpose Of The Study
- To provide a future-oriented commentary on the ethical, safe, and effective integration of LLMs into clinical neuropsychology.
- To explore emerging applications and analyze key ethical considerations for AI in neuropsychological assessment.
Main Methods
- A narrative review of generative transformer-based LLMs in neuropsychological assessment.
- Analysis of ethical considerations using APA ethical principles and AI guidance for health service psychology.
Main Results
- LLMs show promise in data extraction, automated scoring, differential diagnosis, treatment planning, test item development, and summary generation.
- Significant barriers include privacy risks, bias, lack of transparency, test security threats, and insufficient validation.
Conclusions
- Neuropsychologists should actively shape AI regulation and lead empirical validation efforts.
- Augmenting educational resources is crucial for effective and ethical LLM integration into clinical practice.

Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.
Language is a system of communication that allows the expression of thoughts, ideas, and feelings. The brain processes language in both hemispheres.
Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
