Since the late 1800s psychologists have been interested in
discerning the strategies subjects employ to solve psychological
tests (Piaget, 1928, Werner, 1940, Gesell, 1941). Much of this
work, however, has relied on qualitative observations. In the
1970s, Edith Kaplan adopted this approach to the analysis of
standardized neuropsychological measures. Unlike her predecessors,
Dr. Kaplan and her colleagues emphasized the application of modern
behavioral neurology to the analysis of the test data. Her approach
was later termed the Boston Process Approach to neuropsychological
assessment. While Edith Kaplan's work generates a great deal of
enthusiasm, the qualitative nature of her analyses did not allow
for its adoption by mainstream neuropsychologists. However, in
recent years this limitation has begun to be addressed. Clinicians
and researchers have developed new methodologies for quantifying
the Boston Process Approach, leading to the emergence of a new
field, which is collectively termed the Quantified Process
Approach. Quantified Process Approach to Neuropsychological
Assessment outlines the rationale for the emergence of this new
approach and reviews the state of the art research literature and
up to date clinical applications as they pertain to the evaluation
of neuropsychiatric, head injured, and learning disabled patients.
When available, norms and scoring forms are included in the
appendices.
