Small-Group Advanced Seminar in
Interpretation of the HRB
Neuropsychological
Patterns in Neurological Disorders Part I
TBA
Dallas, Texas
This small-group advanced seminar, the first
of a two-part series, will examine neuropsychological patterns of test results
(using the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery) seen in
various neurological disorders and conditions. Conditions to be illustrated
through case examples will include head
injury, stroke, cerebral tumors, and Alzheimer's disease. Each case will be explored systematically
through a process of test interpretation, integration of clinical history and
neurological findings, differential diagnosis, and determination of
educational, treatment or rehabilitation needs.
Registration will be limited to no more than 10 attendees. All attendees must have previously completed a workshop from the Reitan Neuropsychology Labs or The Neuropsychology Center. By limiting enrollment to participants with this level of experience, we expect to be able to offer intensive, advanced training with direct interaction between the instructors and participants.
ACTIVE participation is expected of all attendees!
Learning Objectives:
Participants in this seminar can expect to improve their ability to recognize patterns in neuropsychological test results associated with various neurological conditions. They will also improve their understanding of the implications of various test patterns for patients' daily and occupational functioning.
CE Credit:
16.0 hours of Continuing Education credit for Psychologists.
