Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This comprehensive guide focuses on assessing and rehabilitating impaired cognitive function and brain damage. It is divided into two parts: the first highlights the essential role of cognition in occupational performance and explores theoretical frameworks for cognitive rehabilitation. The second part delves into key cognitive functions such as attention, visual perception, movement, memory, and executive functions, along with associated disorders. The revised edition features an updated theory and evidence base of neuropsychology, frameworks and guidelines for assessment and intervention, enhanced content on attention, memory, and executive functions, and a new chapter addressing cognitive function in later years and strategies for maintaining cognitive health. Written in a clear, engaging style by experienced academic occupational therapists and expert clinicians, the guide includes various learning features like case studies, summaries, and reflective activities. For the first time, it also presents narratives of the lived experience of cognitive impairment. This resource is essential for students, newly qualified practitioners, and professionals in neuropsychology and cognitive rehabilitation.
