This new Third Edition is designed for use with adults who have suffered a stroke or other brain injury or who are affected by the aging process. While the fundamental format covering such skill areas as visual scanning, reading, observing, information acquisition, listening, memory, and abstract reasoning has remained the same, each of the individual training sections has been revised and updated with additional exercises and teacher suggestions. Several new topics have also been introduced; these include new chapters on Understanding the Recovery Process, Maintaining Wellness, and Mood and Thinking. In addition, the newly titled sections on Listening, Scheduling and Time Management, and Memory in Everyday Living have undergone major revisions that will help to maximize improvement in these skill areas. The text features a pretest and posttest for identifying initial deficits and for assessing, improvement. The authors have also included two other methods that allow users to chart ongoing recovery skills and daily activities. The Thinking Skills Workbook can be a valuable tool for facilitating the recovery of cognitive skills and is written for easy use by professional rehabilitation staff, paraprofessionals, and/or family members.
