Model of the Memory Process. Human memory is the process in which information and material is encoded, stored and retrieved in the brain. [1] Memory is a property of the central nervous system, with three different classifications: short-term, long-term and sensory memory. [2]
Neuroimaging – Set of techniques to measure and visualize aspects of the nervous system; Neuropsychology – Study of the brain related to specific psychological processes and behaviors; Neuropsychological assessment – Testing to identify brain impairments, their severity & location
Drawing on systems theory, Siegel proposed that these processes within interpersonal relationships can shape nervous system maturation. [2] Siegel claimed that the mind has an irreducible quality which informs this approach. [2] IPNB proposes that interpersonal experiences have substantial impact on brain development early in life.
Neuropsychological assessment can clarify the nature of the disorder and determine the cognitive functioning associated with a disorder. Assessment can also allow the psychologist to understand the developmental progress of the disorder in order to predict future problems and come up with a successful treatment package.
Any means by which the nervous system can repair individually damaged central circuits. Any means by which the capacity of the central nervous system can adapt to new physiological conditions and environment. The relation of brain development and cognitive development is extremely complex and, since the 1990s, has been a growing area of research.
The Das–Naglieri cognitive assessment system (CAS) test is an individually administered test of cognitive functioning for children and adolescents ranging from 5 through 17 years of age that was designed to assess the planning, attention, simultaneous and successive cognitive processes as described in the PASS theory of intelligence.
Computational neuroscience includes both the study of the information processing functions of the nervous system, and the use of digital computers to study the nervous system. It is an interdisciplinary science that links the diverse fields of neuroscience, cognitive science and psychology, electrical engineering, computer science, physics and ...
A neurological examination is the assessment of sensory neuron and motor responses, especially reflexes, to determine whether the nervous system is impaired. This typically includes a physical examination and a review of the patient's medical history, [1] but not deeper investigation such as neuroimaging.
