What will be an ideal response?
The LNNB consists of 12 scales, as opposed to the HRB’s eight tests. To a greater extent than the HRB, the LNNB relies on qualitative written comments from the examiner about the testing process. These comments describe what the examiner observed about the client, such as problems comprehending the test (e.g., confusion and poor attention); how or why the client is missing items (e.g., slow movement, sight or hearing problems, and speech flaws); or unusual behaviors (e.g., inappropriate emotional reactions, hyperactivity, and distraction). Another difference between the HRB and the LNNB is that the LNNB tends to be slightly briefer.
