Description

The demands and expectations of a psychologist or neuropsychologist in a courtroom are different from those in a clinical practice.

The challenges to and scrutiny of one's basic credentials, training, expertise, and conclusions can be intimidating.

The contributors of Disorders of Executive Functions display obvious knowledge of these demands and challenges. Law and neuropsychology of executive functions will be increasingly intertwined as findings are applied to forensic settings and situations.

In instances where executive impairment is suspected, this book will assist the forensic evaluator to demonstrate the relationship between frontal lobe impairment and criminal/civil behavior. Disorders of Executive Functions was written not only for professionals in psychology and neuropsychology, but also for plaintiff and defense attorneys and judges, rehabilitation and insurance professionals.

Specific, on-point issues are addressed within each chapter with specific references and suggested readings.

This source book presents realistic examples and case studies, then prepares the reader for litigation situations.

Heavily illustrated, it provides numerous checklists, tables, and interview formats.

Sample tests and evaluation, an extensive glossary, and an exhaustive list of core readings are also included.
