Neuropsychologica the Past and Future of Neuropsychology
REVIEW ARTICLE ACTA Vol. 4, No. 1/2, 2006, 1-12 NEUROPSYCHOLOGICA THE PAST AND FUTURE OF NEUROPSYCHOLOGY J.M. Glozman Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia Key words: locationalism, anti-locationalism, dynamic brain systems, Lurian neuropsychology SUMMARY The history of neuropsychology can be conceived in three conceptually and chronologically overlapping phases. The first phase, dominated by the dialectic between locationism and holism (antilocationism), focused on reduc- ing the human mind to the activity of neural processors (locationism), or of the brain as a whole (holism). In the second phase, marked by the introduction of Luria's concept of dynamic systems, mind is derived from the interaction of dynamic neural systems, whose components are dispersed both horizontally and vertically, and the concept of syndrome becomes prominent. In the third phase, neuropsychologists have begun to look at the brain as part of a whole human being, who lives in a particular ecosphere and comes into contact with other human beings. This last phase, which also draws inspiration from Luria's work, has pushed neuropsychology into new fields of inquiry, such as per- sonality and family dynamics. It has also been marked by a shift from product- based to process-based neuropsychology, and the emergence of quality of life as a goal and outcome measure in neuropsychological rehabilitation. INTRODUCTION All over the world contemporary neuropsychology is demonstrating a gene- ral tendency to replace state-based neuropsychology, which relates the brain- damaged individual's symptoms to the precise location of cerebral lesions, with a more dynamic, process-based neuropsychology, which analyzes the dynamics of the brain-behavior interaction (Tupper & Cicerone 1990, Glozman 1999a). -
Cognition and Aphasia: a Discussion and a Study
Journal of Communication Disorders 35 22002) 171±186 Cognition and aphasia: a discussion and a study Nancy Helm-Estabrooks* Harold Goodglass Aphasia Research Center Ð 12A, Boston Veterans Administration Medical Center, Boston University School ofMedicine, 150 South Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA 02130, USA Received 23 October 2001; received in revised form 18 December 2001; accepted 18 December 2001 Abstract The relation between other aspects of cognition and language status of individuals with aphasia is not well-established, although there is some evidence that integrity of non- linguistic skills of attention, memory, executive function and visuospatial skills can not be predicted on the basis of aphasia severity. At the same time, there is a growing realization among rehabilitation specialists, based on clinical experience and preliminary studies, that all domains of cognition are important to aphasia therapy outcomes. This paper describes a new study of the relation between linguistic and nonlinguistic skill in a group of individuals with aphasia. No signi®cant relationship was found between linguistic and nonlinguistic skills, and between nonlinguistic skills and age, education or time post onset. Instead, individual pro®les of strengths and weaknesses were found. The implications of these ®ndings for management of aphasia patients is discussed. Learning outcomes: Readers of this papers will be able to: list ®ve primary domains of cognition and relate each to an aspect of aphasia therapy; describe at least three studies that examined the relation between cognition and aphasia; describe four nonlinguistic tasks of cognition that can be used with a wide range of aphasia patients. # 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. -

They also pioneered in the study of other extra-striate cortical visual areas. Many of his students went on to make distinguished contributions of their own. Charles G. Gross was born on February 29 in 1936. My parents, apparently anxious of my feeling deprived of an annual birthday, celebrated my birthday for 2 or I3 days in the off years and even more in the leap years. I was technically a “red diaper baby.” My parents were active Commu- nist Party members. In fact, however, I never heard the term red diaper baby or knew of my parents’ longstanding party membership until I was in grad- uate school, years after my father had lost his job because of his politics. -
