Download or read book Handbook of Treatment Approaches in Childhood Psychopathology written by Johnny L. Matson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The treatment of psychopathology in children has been a centerpiece of the overall field of problem behaviors in children. Therefore, a considerable number of data have been accumulated, particularly in recent years. These efforts have expanded at such a rate as to result in the publication of several new journals, such as the Journal of Clinical Child Psychology and Education and Treatment of Children. Similarly, many standard general clinical journals have begun to de vote more attention to children. Despite these efforts, few books have emerged that are devoted directly and specifically to treatment in childhood psychopath ology. This volume's scope is broad in that it reviews not only behavior therapy, but also the rapidly expanding efforts in psychopathology and traditional psy chotherapy, and at an advanced level. It is designed to provide an in-depth scholarly review of the empirical evidence, including an overview and analysis of the available techniques, their effectiveness, and the limitations and complica tions arising from the use of these treatment methods with the full range of psychopathology displayed by children. Many nationally and internationally recognized experts have agreed to contribute chapters to this book, and we hope that what has emerged is an up-to-date and authoritative volume.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading this volume, chapter by chapter, I had a feeling of exuberance and exhiliration. lt is both a privilege and achaIlengc 10 write a foreword for this second edition of Learning Disahilities and Brain Function. The scope and quality of the scientific and clinical insights expressed are unusual. It is difficult to do justice 10 the book within the constraints of a foreword. I can only reftect its significance to instructors, scientists. and clinicians in education, psychology, psychiatry. pediatrics. speech pa thology and neurology. In the early chapters are discussions of brain function as it relates to learning and learning disabilities, with many implications for better undcr standing of the neurology of behavior. These chapters are followcd by an articulate consideration of neuropsychological disorders, definition. iden tification and diagnosis of the cognitive dysfunctions that underlie learn ing disabilities. There is an analysis of the role of perception, as weIl as of the significance of impared sensory and motor-cognitive processes. The concluding chapters comprise a clear, erudite, yet practical dis course on the spectrum of language disorders, including the spoken, read, and writ ten forms. Dr. Gaddes provides a constructive review of what it means when children have aphasia, of how this language disorder has implica tions for other types of learning. He elucidates and evaluates the status of our knowledge relative to childhood dyslexia and dysgraphia. This analy sis holds promise for clarification of the issues that have been disconcert ing, especially to educators and psychologists.

Download or read book Left Brain Right Brain Differences written by James F. Iaccino and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume integrates past clinical findings with the latest research on cerebral asymmetry in order to identify why humans process information in different ways. A must for anyone who wants to understand human cognitive nature further, specifically the reasons why we are "wired" a certain way and whether these cortical circuits are flexible enough to be altered, this book presents the most up-to-date information on hemispheric differences within normal and clinical populations. Its focus on sex, handedness, and developmental differences is critical to the derivation of a better perspective on how future research should be conducted in this expanding science. Iaccino begins by explaining basic brain structures and types of cognitive styles assigned to each hemisphere. He then details studies involving various clinical populations -- psychophysiological, split-brain, dyslexic, and psychotic -- to support the claim that the two hemispheres are different, morphologically and functionally speaking. Applying this clinical research to the more normal population, the author uncovers striking cortical variations between the sexes and between the handedness groups, along with developmental changes which occur as a function of time. Finally, he provides a detailed summary of the previous chapters and highlights where asymmetrical research may be headed in the future.

Download or read book Minimal Brain Dysfunction written by Paul L. Nichols and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-18 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Minimal Brain Dysfunction (a previous term for ADHD) has had a tumultuous, and some would say, checkered history. Originally published in 1981, this title was one of a series of volumes dealing with specific developmental problems in children whose mothers registered for prenatal care in the Collaborative Perinatal Project (NCPP) of the National Institute of Neurological and Communicative Disorders and Stroke (NINCDS). In this volume, relationships between symptoms of minimal brain dysfunction and more than 300 prenatal and postnatal variables are examined in a cohort of nearly 30,000 7-year-old children. Despite greater understanding more recently, diagnosis and treatment continue to cause controversy. This is an early investigation into the concept of MBD and its causes, today it can be read in its historical context.

Download or read book Human Laterality written by Michael Corballis and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human Laterality presents the main facts of human laterality as they are known. Drawing on evidence from normal, intact human beings and neurological patients, along with material on asymmetries in other species, this book traces the development of laterality, its evolution, and inheritance. This text also reviews the literature on the relation between laterality and developmental disorders of speech and language, including dyslexia, stuttering, and dysphasia. This book is organized into nine chapters and begins with an overview of the development of knowledge and ideas about laterality over the course of history. This text gives an account of the myths that abound regarding handedness, including the association of right with male and left with female, with the goal of demythologizing human laterality. It argues that there is a common basis to both handedness and cerebral lateralization, and indeed to other manifestations of human laterality such as eyedness and footedness, and that lateralization is fundamentally biological rather than sociocultural. Human laterality is also seen as an innate disposition rather than a matter of learning or imitation. In the final chapter, this book speculates about the possible origins of laterality in the fundamental asymmetries of living molecules and of particle physics. This book is essential reading for biologists and researchers interested in the human anatomy.
