商品描述

Well-known as the "bible" in its field, this text/reference has been thoroughly revised and updated by a team of internationally recognized and clinically experienced neuropsychologists. Drawing on their diverse interests, they provide authoritative, broad-based, and in-depth coverage of current research and clinical practice in neuropsychology. They have not, however, changed the book's overall organization. The first eight chapters present the knowledge base for understanding the principles and practice of patient-oriented, hypothesis-testing neuropsychological assessment. The last 12 chapters review nearly all tests and assessment techniques discussed in previous editions plus many new ones and recent revisions of older tests. The extent of the updating is apparent from the fact that approximately half of the more than 7,000 references cited appeared since the last edition was published.
Many new topics relevant to current assessment practices have been added to the 4th edition. The chapter on examination procedures, for example, now contains sections on cognitive functioning in pain and PTSD patients. The chapter on brain disorders includes new material on electrical/lighting injuries, migraine, Alzheimer's disease and other dementing disorders, and both medical and psychological treatments. The discussion of assessment procedures has been updated throughout to cover recently published test batteries used in general neuropsychological assessment (e.g., mental abilities, memory), newly developed batteries for specific issues (e.g., frontal lobe evaluation), and recent research on older neuropsychological assessment batteries. The fully revised chapter on assessing response bias describes and evaluates more than 60 tests, test combinations, and other measures for detecting questionable effort within the context of forensic neuropsychological assessment.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書在其領域內被廣泛認為是「聖經」,由一組國際知名且具有臨床經驗的神經心理學家徹底修訂和更新。根據他們多樣的興趣,提供了權威、廣泛且深入的當前研究和臨床實踐的覆蓋。然而,他們並未改變書籍的整體組織。前八章介紹了理解以病人為導向的假設檢驗神經心理評估的原則和實踐所需的知識基礎。最後十二章回顧了前幾版中討論的幾乎所有測試和評估技術,以及許多新的測試和舊測試的最近修訂。更新的程度顯而易見,因為在引用的超過7,000個參考文獻中,大約有一半是在上版出版後出現的。

第四版新增了許多與當前評估實踐相關的新主題。例如,關於檢查程序的章節現在包含了有關疼痛和創傷後壓力症候群(PTSD)患者的認知功能的部分。關於腦部疾病的章節包括了有關電擊/照明傷害、偏頭痛、阿茲海默症及其他癡呆症的最新資料,以及醫療和心理治療。評估程序的討論已全面更新,以涵蓋最近出版的用於一般神經心理評估的測試電池(例如,心理能力、記憶)、針對特定問題的新開發電池(例如,額葉評估),以及對舊有神經心理評估電池的最新研究。全面修訂的評估反應偏差的章節描述並評估了超過60個測試、測試組合和其他措施,以檢測在法醫神經心理評估背景下的可疑努力。
