Download or read book The Neuropsychology of Attention written by Ronald A. Cohen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-11 with total page 992 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been 15 years since the original publication of Neuropsychology of Attention. At the time of its publication, attention was a construct that had long been of theoretical interest in the field of psychology and was receiving increased research by cognitive scientists. Yet, attention was typically viewed as a nuisance variable; a factor that needed to be accounted for when assessing brain function, but of limited importance in its own right. There is a need for a new edition of this book within Neuropsychology to present an updated and integrated review of what is know about attention, the disorders that affect it, and approaches to its clinical assessment and treatment. Such a book will provide perspectives for experimental neuropsychological study of attention and also provide clinicians with insights on how to approach this neuropsychological domain.

Download or read book Cognitive Psychology written by Ulric Neisser and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1967, this seminal volume by Ulric Neisser was the first attempt at a comprehensive and accessible survey of Cognitive Psychology; as such, it provided the field with its first true textbook. Its chapters are organized so that they began with stimulus information that came 'inward' through the organs of sense, through its many transformations and reconstructions, and finally through to its eventual use in thought and memory. The volume inspired numerous students enter the field of cognitive psychology and some of the today's leading and most respected cognitive psychologists cite Neisser's book as the reason they embarked on their careers.

Download or read book Positive and Negative Symptoms in Psychosis written by Philip D. Harvey and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1987. This volume presents a collection of chapters on varied aspects of psychotic symptoms, largely within the context of positive versus negative symptoms. These chapters cover a broad range of aspects of these symptoms, such as longitudinal course, cognitive correlates, biochemical and structural correlates, conceptual issues, and research methods. The majority of these chapters were presented at the SUNY-Binghamton/Cornell University conference on schizophrenia that took place on October 17-19, 1985, in Ithaca, NY. That conference was designed to provide a forum for the dissemination of information on psychotic symptoms in general, with the overriding framework of positive versus negative symptoms.

Download or read book Schizophrenia from a Neurocognitive Perspective written by Michael Foster Green and published by Allyn & Bacon. This book was released on 1998 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schizophrenia From A Neurocognitive Perspective: Probing the Impenetrable Darkness is a sole-authored work and the first book to provide an integrative framework for the theme of neurocognition in schizophrenia. Recent advances in schizophrenia research have brought about a fundamental shift in the way the disorder is viewed. Schizophrenia is seen increasingly as a neurocognitive illness. This view has its roots in both the psychological and medical models, but it goes beyond them. The book uses neurocognitive concepts to guide the reader through neurochemical, neuroanatomical, and clinical features of schizophrenia. It also presents clinically relevant information on the interrelationships among neurocognitive deficits, treatment, and outcome. Both students and practitioners will benefit from learning about rapid advances in schizophrenia research and treatment that are dramatically changing our view of this disorder.

Download or read book The Attentive Brain written by Raja Parasuraman and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the myriad tasks that the brain has to perform, perhaps none is as crucial to the performance of other tasks as attention. A central thesis of this book on the cognitive neuroscience of attention is that attention is not a single entity, but a finite set of brain processes that interact mutually and with other brain processes in the performance of perceptual, cognitive, and motor skills.After an introductory part I, the book consists of three parts. Part II, Methods, describes the major neuroscience methods, including techniques used only with animals (anatomical tract tracing, single-unit electrophysiology, neurochemical manipulations), noninvasive human brain-imaging techniques (ERPs, positron emission tomography, and functional magnetic resonance imaging), and studies with brain-damaged individuals. This part also includes a chapter on the computational modeling of attention. Part III, Varieties of Attention, looks at three major components of attention from the cognitive neuroscience perspective: selection, vigilance, and control. It also discusses links to memory and language. Finally, part IV, Development and Pathologies, discusses the application of findings from the previous sections to the analysis of normal and abnormal development and to pathologies of attention such as schizophrenia and attention deficit disorders.
