This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El Trastorno por Deficit de Atencion e Hiperactividad (TDAH) es Psicopatologia del Neurodesarrollo mas prevalente a nivel mundial. Diagnosticada en los primeros anos de vida bajo la apreciacion de sintomas de inatencion, hiperactividad, e impulsividad, se caracteriza principalmente por una alteracion de la funcion ejecutiva a nivel encefalico, lo cual englobaria, entre otros aspectos, la incapacidad para aten-der adecuadamente a ciertos estimulos, planificar, reflexionar sobre las consecuencias de acciones futuras, o inhibir la conducta frente a ciertos estimulos. La significacion clinica del TDAH podria traducirse en severas consecuencias tanto a corto como a largo plazo, pudiendo llegar a vincular dichos resultados al comportamiento disocial e incluso criminal, aunque lo hara en una minoria de sujetos con aquel Cuadro y comunmente en presencia de comorbilidad diagnostica, dotando de gran relevancia a la sintomatologia externalizante. Asi pues, la necesidad de indagar sobre aquellas areas juridico-penales y criminologicas vinculadas a la presencia de psicopatologia en el sujeto conduce a realizar una busqueda cientifica, exhaustiva y comparada, sobre aquel conjunto de variables que tanto a nivel intrinseco como extrinseco pudieran llegar a delimitar una trayectoria futura sustentada en la criminalidad y delincuencia. Por todo ello, se plantea la cobertura multidisciplinar del TDAH en base a distintas ramas de conocimiento, destacando fundamentalmente las que atanen al Derecho Penal, Psicologia, y Criminologia; esto es, a sus implicaciones juridico-penales, psicologicas y criminologicas

Download or read book Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence written by Alan S. Kaufman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-08-05 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic text--now updated with a new interpretive approach tothe WAIS?-III Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence, the classic text fromAlan Kaufman and Elizabeth Lichtenberger, has consistently providedthe most comprehensive source of information on cognitiveassessment of adults and adolescents. The newly updated ThirdEdition provides important enhancements and additions thathighlight the latest research and interpretive methods for theWAIS?-III. Augmenting the traditional "sequential" and "simultaneous"WAIS?-III interpretive methods, the authors present a new approachderived from Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) theory. This approachcombines normative assessment (performance relative to age peers)with ipsative assessment (performance relative to the person's ownmean level). Following Flanagan and Kaufman's work to develop asimilar CHC approach for the WISC?-IV, Kaufman and Lichtenbergerhave applied this system to the WAIS?-III profile of scores alongwith integrating recent WAIS?-III literature. Four appendices present the new method in depth. In addition to adetailed description, the authors provide a blank interpretiveworksheet to help examiners make the calculations and decisionsneeded for applying the additional steps of the new system, andnorms tables for the new WAIS?-III subtest combinations added inthis approach. Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence remains the premierresource for the field, covering not only the WAIS?-III but alsothe WJ III?, the KAIT, and several brief measures of intelligence,as well as laying out a relevant, up-to-date discussion of thediscipline. The new, theory-based interpretive approach for theWAIS?-III makes this a vital resource for practicing psychologists,as well as a comprehensive text for graduate students.

Download or read book Social Behavior in Autism written by Eric Schopler and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important component of Division TEACCH's mandate from the Department of Psychiatry of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine and the North Carolina State Legislature is to conduct research aimed toward improving the understanding of developmental disabilities such as autism and to train the professionals who will be needed to work with this challenging population. An important mechanism to help meet these goals is our annual conference on topics of special importance for the understanding and treatment of autism and related disorders. As with the preceding books in this series entitled Current Issues in Autism, this most recent volume is based on one of these conferences. The books are not, however, simply published proceedings of conference papers. Instead, cer tain conference participants were asked to develop chapters around their pres entations, and other national and intemational experts whose work is beyond the scope of the conference but related to the conference theme were asked to contribute manuscripts as weil. These volumes are intended to provide the most current knowledge and professional practice available to us at this time.
Download or read book ADHD Comorbidities written by Thomas E. Brown and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2009 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only book that covers the multiple ways in which ADHD is complicated by other psychiatric and learning disorders in both children and adults, ADHD Comorbidities: Handbook for ADHD Complications in Children and Adults features comprehensive, research-based information on ADHD and its full range of coexisting syndromes. Contributing researcher-clinicians, familiar with the complications that additional disorders pose, summarize in accessible language what is currently known about ADHD and its comorbidities, from preschool age to adulthood. These authors describe how ADHD leads to different profiles at different stages of development and how to adjust treatment strategies for both ADHD and additional disorders to reduce the impairments resulting from their combination. The book offers a new paradigm for understanding ADHD, viewing it not as a simple behavior disorder but as a complex developmental impairment of executive functions in the brain. This important handbook gives developmental context to ADHD by describing how symptoms at preschool onset differ from those of older age at onset. Clinicians will find practical help for patients whose ADHD appears in conjunction with 11 other syndromes -- from mood disorders to developmental coordination disorder -- and acquire valuable guidance on adapting and adjusting medications and other interventions to optimize treatment effects for the wide diversity of complex cases that embody ADHD.
