Описание: The second edition of this essential reference, which examines the neuropsychological features of neurological disorders, has been fully updated and revised, and includes two new chapters. Informative reading for all neurologists, as well as general physicians and specialists who deal with any disorders which may compromise cognitive function.
Описание: This concise reference clarifies the gray areas between traumatic brain injury and PTSD while providing an empirically sound framework for neuropsychological evaluation and differential diagnosis. Its extended research review summarizes findings on key topics including the neuroanatomy of brain injury, test battery design and selection, and the salience of accurate diagnosis to ensuring appropriate specialized treatment. The authors offer the possibility of combined diagnosis as well as injuries that may fall through the diagnostic cracks, and consider possible relationships between TBI, PTSD, and the dementias, including Alzheimer’s disease. This knowledge base and the practical guidelines it informs are presented so that readers can better: · Understand the clinical distinctions between TBI and PTSD, and among forms of TBI.· Recognize cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and social components of the disorders. · Identify skill areas for neuropsychological evaluation of patients.· Select appropriate instruments for individualized assessment.· Address test administration and interpretation concerns.· Make an accurate differential diagnosis between PTSD and TBI. With its sharp focus on the nuances of trauma and recovery, The Intercorrelation of Traumatic Brain Injury and PTSD in Neuropsychological Evaluations will find a wide, interested audience among psychologists, neuropsychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, social workers, mental health counselors, undergraduate and graduate level students, and researchers. In addition, this text may be useful for those interested in psychology and neurology. <

Описание: An integrated approach to brain injury rehabilitation from an interdisciplinary team. Describes the holistic programme devised and adopted at the world famous Oliver Zangwill Centre, embracing a broad theoretical base which incorporates a variety of frameworks, theories and models. Includes real case examples and reviews the outcomes measured and achieved.
Описание: Around 10 million people in the UK suffer from a neurological disorder, one million of whom are disabled by their condition. Neurological disorders that can affect cognitive functioning include stroke, head injury, multiple sclerosis and dementia. Historically the emphasis within neurology has been on diagnosis.

Описание: Experience as a psychotherapist and career counselor offered a clinical perspective from which to document the conclusion that trau- matic brain damage frequently impairs adaptive capacity of children and adults after even relatively "minor" injury.

Описание: This volume provides a complete description of the relationship between learning to read and hemispheric functioning, which has been found to change the course of development. The right cerebral hemisphere initially controls reading skills, with the left becoming more dominant as the reader advances. Children failing to make this shift are at risk of developing one type of dyslexia, while those who prematurely rely on left-hemispheric reading strategies may developanother type. The book contains comprehensive information on the treatments for these different types and discusses their strengths, weakenesses, and limitations.
Описание: Deals with the neuropsychological and psychosocial sequelae of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and its treatment. This monograph provides an overview of basic treatment modalities and functional outcome after SAH with special emphasis on aneurysm surgery.

Описание: In summary, considerable controversy and research have been generated from the automatic/effortful distinction. Hasher and Zacks (1979) initially stated that all manipulations (e. g., practice, individual differences such as age, orienting instructions) must produce null effects in order to satisfy the criteria that a process is "automatic. " However, Zacks et al. (1984) have more recently noted that automatic processes may range in degree from relative insensitivity to task and subject variables (e. g., frequency processing) to those that are more vulnera- ble to disruptive effects (e. g., temporal processing). A review of the literature reveals that individuals are sensitive to frequency information even if manipUla- tions alter the slope of the judgments. Perhaps the application of dual-task metho- dology to the measurement of capacity demands will be useful in classifying processes along an attentional continuum. Moreover, there has been a tendency to dichotomize automatic/effortful processes rather than to characterize them as ranging from low to high attentional demands. Recent evidence (Maki & Ostby, 1987) suggests that attention may be important only in the initial (early) stages of processing frequency information. Therefore, a major difference that may emerge between automatic and effortful processing could be the degree of sus- tained attention required from individuals. In the following section, we review the findings obtained in the application of the automatic/effortful framework to the elderly and neurological/psychiatric populations.

Описание: For the practicing neuropsychologist or researcher, keeping up with the sheer number of newly published or updated neuropsychological tests is a challenge, as is evaluating the utility and psychometric properties of each test in a clinical context. This thoroughly revised third edition of the well-established reference text, A compendium of Neuropsychological Tests, presents critical reviews of major neuropsychological assessment tools. Written in a comprehensive, easy-to-read format, it provides the reader with essential information concerning theoretical background, norms, reliability, validity, and utility of tests as well as of new measures. All chapters have been extensively updated and expanded, and two new chapters have been added: "Psychometrics in Neuropsychological Assessment" and "Norms Selection in Neuropsychological Assessment". Of interest to neuropsychologists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and educational and clinical psychologists working with adults as well as with paediatric populations, this volume will aid practitioners in selecting appropriate testing measures for their patients and will provide then with the knowledge needed to arrive at empirically supported interpretations of the results.

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
