This important resource presents the latest information on brain-behaviour relationships and describes ways school practitioners can apply neuropsychological principles in their work with children. Bridging the gap between neuropsychological theory, assessment, and intervention, this accessible text addresses complex topics in a straightforward, easy-to-understand fashion that makes it of immediate practical utility. The authors challenge previous conceptions about brain functions and present the cognitive hypothesis testing model, an innovative method that helps practitioners form accurate understandings of learner characteristics and conduct meaningful and valid individualized interventions with children with a range of learning and behaviour disorders. The book comes in a large-size format with reproducible worksheets and forms, and features case studies and real-life examples, a glossary of terms, and a list of useful Internet resources.
