A nationwide survey of accredited neuropsychologists in Australia was conducted to examine test use. Clinicians were asked to list the tests they give most often. Results are expressed as endorsement frequencies for tests. Comparisons with international surveys of test use are provided. Suggestions for clinicians and others concerned with test use are included to demonstrate how survey results can be used to improve neuropsychological services. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
