Disclosed are methods and data on determining response to a drug or other therapy prior to administration by obtaining a direct neurocognitive brain function measurement; obtaining an indirect neurocognitive brain function measurement; and, assessing the direct neurocognitive brain function measurement and the indirect neurocognitive brain function measurement collectively to obtain a response determination preferably the predictive value of the collective assessment is greater than a predictive value obtained from the separate predictive values for the direct and indirect measurements. Also disclosed are methods of determining dosage of a drug comprising administering a drug; comprising obtaining a direct neurocognitive brain function measurement; obtaining an indirect neurocognitive brain function measurement; and, assessing the direct neurocognitive brain function measurement and the indirect neurocognitive brain function measurement collectively to obtain a dosage, preferably the predictive value of the collective assessment is greater than a predictive value obtained from the separate predictive values for the direct and indirect measurements; optionally, additional cycles of obtaining and assessing indirect and direct measurements are performed.
