Brain Lesion Localization and Developmental Functions
Author: Daria Riva, Charles Njiokiktjien, Sara Bulgheroni
Publisher: John Libbey Eurotext
ISBN: 2742012095
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 597
Book Description
A detailed review of the links between the neuronal networks and the development of cognitive and behavioural functions. This book focuses on the three following parts of the brain: - The frontal lobe: this section concentrates on anatomy, mirror neurons, memory, executive functions, the neuropsychology of frontal lobe epilepsy and the resolution of social problems which can occur as a result of brain damage. - The limbic system: this second part looks at neuro-anatomical organisation and the core functions of the hippocampus and amygdala, problems of language, music, emotions or autism. - The visuocognitive system: the last one summarizes the visual field problems associated with focal lesions, the correlation with neuro-imagery and visual impairment in children born prematurely.

Brain lesion localization and developmental functions
Author: Daria Riva
Publisher: John Libbey Eurotext
ISBN: 2742009752
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
Advances in the neurocognitive sciences, aided by increased imaging power, have extensively confirmed that during early development specific areas of a child’s brain are designed to process specific functions — neurologic, cognitive, linguistic, motoric, and visuospatial, among others — and that this processing involves globally complex interconnections with other areas distributed throughout the brain: a lesion in a given area interferes with the functioning and coherence of the system as a whole. This volume discusses the consequences of early brain injury to many parts of the brain, including the basal ganglia, with their related disorders of aphasia, OCD, and AD/HD, as well as white matter and its associated neuropsychological impairment of intelligence, language, and visuoperception. The corpus callosum and cerebellum are studied as they relate to learning motor sequences and language as well as communication disorders and social behavior. This book also looks at mirror neurons as they affect the understanding of others’ intentions and the development of empathy and gestural and other forms of language. The implications of these findings are examined since they have a critical effect on the rehabilitative and educational efforts that are being designed to mitigate the effects of early brain lesions on the growing child.

Language Acquisition Across Linguistic and Cognitive Systems
Author: Michèle Kail
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027253145
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
How and why do all children learn language? Why do some have difficulties while others are early language learners? What are the consequences of early bilingualism? Is it possible to reach native-like competence in a foreign language? Although we still cannot fully answer these questions, research during the last two decades has begun to solve some pieces of the puzzle. This book proposes an interdisciplinary collection of writings from some of the best specialists across several fields in cognitive science, offering a wide sample of recent advances in the study of first language acquisition, bilingualism, second language acquisition, and disorders of oral language. It is addressed to all researchers and students interested in language acquisition, as well as to teachers, clinicians and parents, who will find therein many new findings and varied methodological approaches, as well as challenging questions that are still debated and in need of further research.

A Linguistic Approach to the Study of Dyslexia
Author: Gloria Cappelli
Publisher: Channel View Publications
ISBN: 1800415982
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 573
Book Description
This volume contributes to the growing body of research on developmental dyslexia, focusing on the disorder’s behavioural manifestations at different levels of the language system. It is organised into three sections that cover the three main vantage points from which the effects of dyslexia on communication can be observed: neuropsychology, linguistics and the perspective of educators. Together, the chapters provide an insightful overview of the ways in which dyslexia impacts different components of language, including lexical and pragmatic abilities, and present data from experimental and applied research, with suggestions for the application of research-based data in both innovative and traditional language teaching, ways to rehabilitate reading dysfunctions, as well as teacher training. The book will be essential reading for researchers and students investigating dyslexia, as well as foreign language teachers and professionals who work on the rehabilitation of linguistic performance dysfunctions in people with dyslexia.
