Описание: Increasingly sophisticated neuroradiological techniques, managed care factors, and the growth of rehabilitation necessitates that rehabilitation professionals provide more functionally (rather than diagnostically) useful evaluations to improve the neuropsychological functioning and community integration of persons with brain injuries or diseases. This book was written to fill the gap in the current neuropsychological and rehabilitation literature. It proposes a universal taxonomy of neuropsychological abilities, with a list of basic rehabilitation strategies to improve impairments identified in general domains. Specific chapters are included on the neuropsychological remediation of memory, attention, language, visual-spatial skills, and executive function impairments. Each chapter proposes a taxonomy of cognitive constructs (such as divided attention, sustained attention, focused attention), lists tests which may have been used to assess each cognitive construct, and provides specific rehabilitation strategies to improve or accommodate the identified neuropsychological impairments. The book includes a chapter with information pertaining to U.S.A. resources in the community for persons with brain disorders to assist them, including national organizations for the most common neuropsychological disorders (such as brain injury, stroke, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Multiple Sclerosis), as well as general resources for persons with disabilities. Information provided will be of use to family members, rehabilitation professionals, and others who work with people with brain injury.

Описание: This essential desk reference will meet the demand for a broad and convenient collection of normative data in child neuropsychology. In a clearly written, well-organized manner, it compiles published and previously unpublished normative data for the neuropsychological tests that are most commonly used with children. Far from being a raw collection, however, it integrates concepts and models central to the neuropsychologicalsessment of children into the discussions of data. All these discussions have a practical, clinical focus. As background, the author considers the current status of child neuropsychology practice, test models, behavioural assessment techniques, observational data, procedures to optimize child evaluation, communication of results through the interpretative session and report writing, and preliminary assessment methods. Then she reviews the tests and data under the broad domains of intelligence, executive function, attention, language, motor and sensory-perceptual function, visuoperceptual, visuospatial and visuoconstructional function, and learning and memory. Written by a seasoned practitioner, this book will be an extraordinary resource for child and developm
