Experimental Methods in Neuropsychology

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The last decade has seen an enormous growth of knowledge regarding the brain and cognitive levels of explanation. However, the `cognitive neuroscience revolution' has to a large extent been invisible in neuropsychology, where many tests are still in use that are based on knowledge of the brain and cognition from the 1950s and 1960s. The present volume thus aims at presenting a selection of new methods and techniques that may have value for clinical neuropsychology.
There is an increasing interest among clinical neuropsychologists regarding new developments in cognitive neuroscience and experimental psychology. This book presents an updated view of recent methodological developments in experimental psychology and clinical neuroscience.
