An act of labor and love, the conceptualization, compilation, and production of the Encyclopedia of Clinical Neuropsychology (2nd ed.) spanned more than 4 years. Building on the foundation of the first edition, the editors-in-chief sought to provide a current corpus of content of empirically based, relevant, and practical information. To this end, we added three new topical sections: neuroimaging, military neuropsychology, and DSM-5 and enlisted the help of three superb new section editors: Erin Bigler, Ph.D., Risa Nakase-Richardson, Ph.D., and Ana Mills, Psy.D, respectively, to orchestrate the new sections. An immense project, the encyclopedia now contains more than 2,200 entries. More than 1,600 first edition entries were updated and 230 new entries were added. The newest edition of the encyclopedia now reflects the work of nearly 900 authors. As with the first edition, we have aimed to create a comprehensive reference for professionals involved in the evaluation, diagnosis, and rehabilitation of children and adults with neurological disorders. We have also provided stu- dents and researchers with the breadth of knowledge to facilitate success in evaluating and treating these patients. Suggested readings and cross references direct readers to additional information on the various topics. We anticipate that the Encyclopedia of Clinical Neuropsychology will be the first place readers turn for factual, relevant, and comprehensive information. August 2018 Jeffrey S. Kreutzer John DeLuca Bruce Caplan v Acknowledgment We are indebted to our cadre of esteemed Associate Editors for helping to develop their sections, recruit contributors, and ensure the presence of consis- tently high quality entries. We express our utmost appreciation to the brilliant group of authors whose efforts form the core of our project. We are immensely indebted to the superb Springer Major reference works team including Janice Stern, Michael Hermann, and Sonja Peterson. They taught us, encouraged us, kept us organized and on track, and helped us in every step of the way. We are also grateful to our students, patients and their families from whom we learned much about facing challenges and the value of being practical. vii List of Topics Cancer and Tumors–Bruce Caplan Hamartoma Hemangioblastoma Section Editor: Carol L.

  • Clinical Neuropsychology What Is Clinical Neuropsychology?
    Clinical Neuropsychology What is Clinical Neuropsychology? A Neuropsychologist is a licensed psychologist trained to examine the link between a patient’s brain and behavior. A Neuropsychologist will assess neurological, medical, and genetic disorders, psychiatric illness and behavior problems, developmental disabilities, and complex learning issues. UNC PM&R’s Neuropsychologists work with children, adolescents, and adults. The primary goal of this service is to utilize results of the evaluation to collaborate with the patient and develop a treatment plan and recommendations that best fit the patient’s needs. Patients who may benefit from a Neuropsychological Evaluation include those with: • A neurological disorder such as epilepsy, hydrocephalus, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, multiple sclerosis, or hydrocephalus • An acquired brain injury from concussion or more severe head trauma, stroke, hydrocephalus, lack of oxygen, brain infection, brain tumor, or other cancers • Other medical conditions that may affect brain functioning, such as chronic heart, lung, kidney, or liver problems, diabetes, breathing issues, lupus, or other autoimmune diseases • A neurodevelopmental disorder such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, intellectual disabilities, learning difficulties, ADHD disorder, or autism spectrum disorder • Problems with or changes in thinking, memory, or behavior with no clear known cause What is the evaluation like? The evaluation will be tailored to The evaluation may last between 3-6 address the patient’s specific concerns hours and typically includes: about functioning, and can address 1. Interview with the patient and the following: possibly family members/caretakers • General intellectual ability and/or problems in 2.

Maharbiz, Chair A seamless, high density, chronic interface to the nervous system is essential to enable clinically relevant applications such as electroceuticals or brain-machine interfaces (BMI). Currently, a major hurdle in neurotechnology is the lack of an implantable neural interface system that remains viable for a patient's lifetime due to the development of biological response near the implant.

  • Criteria for Unconscious Cognition: Three Types of Dissociation
    Perception & Psychophysics 2006, 68 (3), 489-504 Criteria for unconscious cognition: Three types of dissociation THOMAS SCHMIDT Universität Gießen, Gießen, Germany and DIRK VORBERG Technische Universität Braunschweig, Braunschweig, Germany To demonstrate unconscious cognition, researchers commonly compare a direct measure (D) of awareness for a critical stimulus with an indirect measure (I) showing that the stimulus was cognitively processed at all. We discuss and empirically demonstrate three types of dissociation with distinct ap- pearances in D–I plots, in which direct and indirect effects are plotted against each other in a shared effect size metric. Simple dissociations between D and I occur when I has some nonzero value and D is at chance level; the traditional requirement of zero awareness is necessary for this criterion only. Sensitivity dissociations only require that I be larger than D; double dissociations occur when some experimental manipulation has opposite effects on I and D. We show that double dissociations require much weaker measurement assumptions than do other criteria. Several alternative approaches can be considered special cases of our framework.

  • The Retina and Vision
    CHAPTER 19 The Retina and Vision The visual system is arguably the most important system through which our brain gathers information about our surroundings, and forms one of our most complex phys- iological systems. In vertebrates, light entering the eye through the lens is detected by photosensitive pigment in the photoreceptors, converted to an electrical signal, and passed back through the layers of the retina to the optic nerve, and from there, through the visual nuclei, to the visual cortex of the brain. At each stage, the signal passes through an elaborate system of biochemical and neural feedbacks, the vast majority of which are poorly, if at all, understood. Although there is great variety in detail between the eyes of different species, a number of important features are qualitatively conserved. Perhaps the most striking of these features is the ability of the visual system to adapt to background light. As the background light level increases, the sensitivity of the visual system is decreased, which allows for operation over a huge range of light levels. From a dim starlit night to a bright sunny day, the background light level varies over 10 orders of magnitude (Hood and Finkelstein, 1986), and yet our eyes continue to operate across all these levels without becoming saturated with light. The visual system accomplishes this by ensuring that its sensitivity varies approximately inversely with the background light, a relationship known as Weber’s law (Weber, 1834) and one that we discuss in detail in the next section. Because of this adaptation, the eye is more sensitive to changes in light level than to a steady input.

An expanding body of neuroscience literature increasingly informs clinical practice by validating theory, guiding clinical assessment and conceptualiza­ tion, directing effective interventions, and facilitating cross-disciplinary communication. Little attention, however, has been given to the use of neuroeducation with clients. In this article, the author provides mental health counselors with a definition of neuroeducation and a rationale for incorporating neuroeducation into clinical practice. The author identifies common neuro­ education topics and offers activity suggestions to illustrate their use in counseling. Finally, the author offers best practices for implementing neuroeducation, including attention to counselor competence, client readiness, and neuroscience of learning

  • Chromatic Mach Bands: Behavioral Evidence for Lateral Inhibition in Human Color Vision
    Perception &: Psychophysics 1987, 41 (2), 173-178 Chromatic Mach bands: Behavioral evidence for lateral inhibition in human color vision COLIN WARE University ofNew Brunswick, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada and Wll..LIAM B. COWAN National Research Council of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Apparent hue shifts consistent with lateral inhibition in color mechanisms were measured, in five purely chromatic gradients, for 7 observers. Apparent lightness shifts were measured in achro­ matic versions of the same gradients, and a correlation was found to exist between the magni­ tude of the chromatic shifts and the magnitude ofthe achromatic shifts. The data can be modeled by a function that approximates the activity of color-sensitive neurons found in the monkey cor­ tex. Individual differences and the failure of some previous researchers to find the effect can be accounted for by differences in the function parameters for different observers.
