Neuropsychological Assessment in Clinical Child Psychology

Description

This volume conveys the purposes, advantages and limitations of neuropsychological assessment in the context of child development and presents cross-disciplinary developments in elaborating brain-behaviour relationships. An historical perspective illustrates how current conceptualizations matured, and an eclectic model is provided to encourage the evaluation of various neuropsychological abilities and functions in a clinically feasible manner. Commonly used assessment batteries and individual tests are concisely presented and evaluated, and the interrelations of test performance, brain functioning, psychological processes and clinical impairment elaborated.
