Product Description

Review

With the publication of [this book] the discipline of pediatric neuropsychology is forever changed. Setting a new benchmark of scholarship in neuropsychology generally, and in child neuropsychology in particular, Dr. Baron's new book clearly is required reading for every member of the profession . . . Bringing together in one volume the vast expertise that only a seasoned and gifted clinician can offer, with the extraordinarily complete and well integrated research literature in child neuropsychology and the much-needed and anticipated coalescence of child test norms, she has presented the field with a tremendous gift . . . a major teaching vehicle for all students of the profession . . . a major resource for all neuropsychologists. Its contribution to the profession in terms of both its scholarship and practical utility is priceless; its publication pushes the "bar" several notches higher. (Joel E Morgan in Child Neuropsychology )

Product Description

This essential desk reference will meet the demand for a broad and convenient collection of normative data in child neuropsychology. In a clearly written, well-organized manner, it compiles published and previously unpublished normative data for the neuropsychological tests that are most commonly used with children. Far from being a raw collection, however, it integrates concepts and models central to the neuropsychological assessment of children into the discussions of data. All these discussions have a practical, clinical focus. As background, the author considers the current status of child neuropsychology practice, test models, behavioural assessment techniques, observational data, procedures to optimize child evaluation, communication of results through the interpretative session and report writing, and preliminary assessment methods. Then she reviews the tests and data under the broad domains of intelligence, executive function, attention, language, motor and sensory-perceptual function, visuoperceptual, visuospatial and visuoconstructional function, and learning and memory. Written by a seasoned practitioner, this book will be an extraordinary resource for child and developmental neuropsychologists, clinical psychologists, child neurologists, and their students and trainees.

A must have for any pediatric neuropsychologist ! 17 Jan 2006
By A. Arents - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Thanks to Sue Baron, the pediatric neuropsychologist finaly have the equivalent of the Lezak for adult neuropsychology. This book is in the top list of the American Board of Pediatric Neuropsychology and you will understand why when you will read it ! The heart of the book is the description of almost all the tests available in the field of pediatric neuropsychology. The descriptions cover the statistic properties and the main studies available on the principle tests. Each chapter that presents a function starts with a state of the art at a Phd level. It really saved me hours of reading in many books ! Included are also numerous norms (mostly americans)with unpublished ones. The references included are of a great interrest too. The chapter on report wrinting is also essential. To be perfect one would expect a chapter on achievement tests and due to its publication date the WISC IV and the WPPSI III are not included. Apart from this there is simply no criticism to formulate. In a short way I strongly recommand this book and would be very surprised to find any disappointed reader !

This publication is the Gold Standard for child psychologists and neuropsychologists who work with children. This is the most comprehensive publication on norms and data related to intrepretation of psychological test results applied to children. A MUST HAVE publication for child psychologists who conduct child testing, neuropsychologists, and school psychologists. Dr. Bob Elliott
