“…Therapies usually improve proficiency and/or speed on the training tasks, but there is little evidence that these changes reflect improved basic skills [32], a finding which cautions against assuming the practical value of Model Three approaches.…”

“…Treatment is usually conducted for 5-8 hours on 4-5 days per week across a fixed duration of weeks, with the total contact hours varying from 400-1200. Although a small number of full-featured holistic programmes have been developed in the US [7,8,10,23,[31][32][33][34][35], this model never approached defining the standard of care.…”

“…Therapy rationales are almost always derived from theories of normal neurocognitive function, neuropathology and neurorehabiliation [3,7,11,23,25] rather than empirical rules of thumb or the logic of alien practices such as physical rehabilitation or special education. Although treatment plans are typically individualized, certain strategems have proven so broadly effective that they have become staples in CR programmes: notebooks and other informationrecording devices to compensate for impaired declarative (content) memory, daytimers, alarms or pagers to support impaired prospective memory and time management and problem-solving algorithms or routines [9,12,32]. Some programmes elevate executive or problem-solving processes, with their special application for re-instituting self-management, to the centre of focus [14,25,43].…”

“…The analyzer is also used to search the posterior cortex's gnostic library quickly and exhaustively to determine the potential adaptive impact of emergent stimuli and situations (Gibson, 1979;Luria, 1973), and to compare plans with anticipated outcomes (Gross, 1982) in order to narrow the choice of goals and plans to those that are most practical (Miller et al, 1960;Schlesinger, 1962). The process requires a coordinated interplay of the executive and afferent analyzers (Gross and Schutz, 1986), executed through the frontoparietal distributed network (Mesulam, 2000a). (Extended explanation of the functions of this network is beyond the scope of this paper, and is deferred to a future discussion.)…”

Traditional accounts of right-posterior brain injury describe a syndrome of low-level perceptual sequelae producing marked acute dependency and transient safety concerns. The syndrome is also held to spare cognition and to carry a generally favorable long-term prognosis. The present paper reviews publications and anecdotal data that challenge this picture. Recent theoretical expositions and empirical studies stipulate three major cognitive functions of the right posterior association cortex: processing novel input, guiding reactions to emergencies, and anticipating consequences. Appearing benign after acute recovery, the impairment of these processes produces vocational, social and marital dysfunctions that increase as a function of chronicity, ultimately becoming more broadly disabling than focal injuries in other cortical loci. The unique symptom picture and serious implications suggest that the long-term syndrome should be labeled (Broad-Perspective Perceptual Disorder) and incorporated in future clinical taxonomies, underscoring the need for extraordinary long-term assistance and specialized therapeutics. Procedures for assessment and differential diagnosis are outlined.

The development of the field of neuropsychology in Israel is primarily the result of the development of rehabilitation services for traumatic brain-injured patients. The responsibility to care for and help disabled veterans has always been an important motivation for the establishment of rehabilitation services. Israel is probably one of the first countries in the world to develop community-based services specifically designed to address the needs of young patients with severe traumatic brain injury. The fairly extensive therapeutic and community services available today for both military and civilian brain-injured persons in Israel ae the result of initiatives and funding by the Israel Ministry of Defense's Department of Rehabilitation. There are two principles that characterize most of the programs in Israel: (1) multidimensional remedial intervention and (2) life-time commitment to provide support. The accessibility of patients in a small country enables professionals to conduct follow-up studies in order to evaluate the long-term effects of brain injury. Current developments in neuropsychology are in three directions. First, formal training programs in neuropsychology are being set up. Second, the involvement of neuropsychologists is being extended beyond the treatment of young patients suffering from traumatic brain injury to include the treatment of different brain pathologies in children and the elderly. Third, sophisticated neuroimaging techniques are being applied to studies in cognitive neuropsychology.
