ABSTRACT The field of neuropsychology is becoming increasingly responsive to addressing the specific needs of an ever-growing Hispanic/Latinx population. As such, bilingualism and bilingual education are at the forefront of considerations for neuropsychologists. This paper examines models of bilingual academic instruction and levels of bilingualism and how they impact neuropsychological findings and diagnostic determinations in pediatrics. The present case series highlights five children assessed in a pediatric medical setting. Various profiles are analyzed to highlight the intricacies in assessment that must be considered. These findings present a set of considerations as a step toward a systematic approach to bilingual neuropsychological assessment.

摘要 神经心理学领域对解决不断增长的西班牙裔/拉丁裔人口的特定需求越来越敏感。因此，双语和双语教育是神经心理学家考虑的首要问题。本文研究了双语学术教学模式和双语水平，以及它们如何影响儿科的神经心理学发现和诊断决定。本病例系列重点介绍了在儿科医疗环境中评估的五名儿童。分析了各种配置文件，以突出必须考虑的评估中的复杂性。这些发现提出了一系列考虑因素，作为迈向双语神经心理学评估的系统方法的一步。
