The purpose of this book is to introduce clinical psychologists,
other mental health practitioners, and researchers to the
neurocognitive approach to assessing and treating psychiatric
disorders. It will provide a basic introduction to the research
that integrates conventional clinical diagnostic methods with
neuropsychological testing, cognitive assessment strategies,
functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI),
electroencephalography (EEG), and other psychophysiological models.
Readers will learn how these measures can be used to elucidate
target domains of dysfunction that extend beyond the framework
provided by the DSM and inform the optimal treatment of psychiatric
disorders. The beginning chapters will discuss the history,
emergence, and priorities of the neurocognitive approach and
explain the basic principles and limitations of brain- and
body-based assessment tools. Subsequent chapters will address
individual psychiatric disorders in this neurocognitive context and
follow a standard format: a thorough description of the clinical
problem; a review of the most recent literature; a discussion of
how the neurocognitive approach advances our understanding of the
disorder; and conclusions for future research and practice.
