Dr. Cory has conducted both clinical and forensic neuropsychological evaluations with Spanish-monolingual and bilingual adults for nearly two decades, and has provided testimony in such cases.
Raised predominantly in California, Dr. Cory is bilingual on the basis of years of formal Spanish language coursework, high school foreign exchange in Costa Rica, and a semester abroad at the University of Sevilla (Spain). He focused much of his doctoral training and dissertation (Ph.D.) research on Spanish bilingual clinical neuropsychology, and he was the Spanish-speaking postdoctoral fellow at UCLA during 2003-2005. He has been a member of the Hispanic Neuropsychological Society (HNS) since 2000.
Dr. Cory conducts neuropsychological evaluations with interview and testing in Spanish (for monolingual or Spanish-dominant examinees), thus enhancing the validity of assessment data and medicolegal conclusions he will derive. Critical records review of evaluations conducted with such plaintiffs, claimants or defendants by other professionals (in some cases with insufficient knowledge, training and foreign language skills) may by necessity be a part of such medicolegal consultation services by Dr. Cory.
Dr. Cory is available to travel outside of Montana (for example, to Colorado and Utah, where he is a licensed psychologist) to conduct Spanish-language neuropsych evaluations.
