To err is human: "abnormal" neuropsychological scores and variability are common in healthy adults.
TLDR
It is concluded that abnormal performance on some proportion of neuropsychological tests in a battery is psychometrically normal, and that test battery developers provide data on the amount of variability in normal samples and also provide base rate tables with false positive rates that can be used clinically when interpreting test performance.

TLDR
The serial use of computerized neuropsychological screening with ImPACT to monitor recovery in a clinical case series of injured athletes is illustrated to illustrate the importance of analysing individual athletes’ test data because group analyses can obscure slow Recovery in a substantial minority of athletes.

A Systematic Review of Psychiatric, Psychological, and Behavioural Outcomes following Mild Traumatic Brain Injury in Children and Adolescents
TLDR
In the absence of true reports of preinjury problems and when ideally comparing mild TBI to non-TBI injured controls, there is little evidence to suggest that psychological, behavioural, and/or psychiatric problems persist beyond the acute and subacute period following an mTBI in children and adolescents.
