Zusatztext For working clinical neuropsychologists this book is a must ... a source of inspiration for new scientific developments. Informationen zum Autor Peter Arnett, PhDDirector of Clinical TrainingAssociate Professor of PsychologyThe Pennsylvania State University Klappentext This exciting new, evidence-based book provides clinicians with a single source for considering the impact of secondary factors on cognitive dysfunction in neurological patients. The influence on testing of depression, anxiety, fatigue, pain, diagnosis threat, and symptom invalidity are all considered in the context of particular neurological disorders. "The need to heighten awareness in the field of non-neurological influences on neuropsychological test scores is critical and this is an estimable attempt to broach the topic. Readers will find this book enlightening and critical to implement in their practice. There are some weaknesses that stop the book short of its pinnacle, but these hopefully will be addressed in the next edition." -- Doody's Zusammenfassung This exciting new, evidence-based book provides clinicians with a single source for considering the impact of secondary factors on cognitive dysfunction in neurological patients.
