The main purpose of this book is to present and review the most useful narrow cognitive strengths and weaknesses associated with know academic disorders. Based on data from a large sample of children and adults with diagnosed academic disorders, the book identifies evidence-based selective assessments for specific learning disabilities. This innovative book also introduces Functional CHC (F-CHC) nomenclature which simplifies psychoeducational and neuropsychological reports. Appendices and resources are provided for cross-battery assessment and evidence-based interventions.

This book explores how young children learn and acquire basic mathematical skills from a brain-based educational perspective. There is a discussion of three primary ways in which numbers are formatted in the brain, as well as the relationship between anxiety and mathematical performance. Scores of evidence based interventions and targeted strategies are offered as well. Lastly, the Feifer Assessment of Mathematics (FAM) will be introduced to help educators better diagnose and remediate math learning disabilities in children.

This book delves into the neural underpinnings of stress, trauma, and emotional dysfunction in children and its relative impact upon learning. Environmental deprivation, poverty, childhood abuse, witnessing violence, and parental neglect can impact both cognitive and social-emotional development in children. Schools can enhance emotional wellness through early prevention efforts, appropriate assessment and screening techniques, and an improved school climate to foster emotional growth for all children. Some of the key topic areas include: The prevalence of trauma and stress for school-aged children, as well as the various sources from which trauma can occur. Specific brain regions impacted when students experience trauma, and the subsequent effect on academic and social skills development. Five essential steps toward the development of a "trauma informed" school. How to develop and cultivate resiliency in children. Targeted assessment strategies and specific classroom accommodations for students exposed to stress and trauma.

Response to Intervention (RTI) is a phrase which has captivated a national movement, redefined educational policy, and most importantly, has called for public schools to make a renewed commitment toward using scientifically- based instructional techniques as the foundation for sound educational practice. Cognitive neuropsychology has also emerged as a leading discipline in forging the inevitable alliance between science and education. This book represents the natural symbiosis between RTI and the brain-behavioral tenets of cognitive neuropsychology to assist all educators in better diagnosing and remediating reading disorders in children.

This book explores emotional disorders from a neuropsychological, psychopharmacological, and educational perspective in order to assist educators and clinicians in their quest for more meaningful and enduring interventions.The book contains detailed discussion on the neurobiological correlates of mood and anxiety disorders, and psychopathology and violence, as well as the neural basis of empathy and altruistic behavior. The relationship between executive dysfunction and emotional wellness is examined, along with a detailed synopsis of medication treatment options for children. There is compelling evidence that emotional wellness can be enhanced through early prevention efforts and appropriate assessment strategies to foster both social-emotional functioning and academic performance in children. This book will be of interest to psychologists, educators, and allied mental health providers who work with children. The first part of the book deals with the neuropsychological component of emotional disorders and provides both a theoretical and practical description, with discussion ranging from dysfunctional executive functions to right hemisphere disorders. The second section of the book is devoted to the psychopharmacological aspects of emotional disorders. A final section deals with the educational aspects, including learning, school achievement, mindfulness, and behavioral support programs.
