“…Neuropsychological organization in children remains unclear at present, but a variety of sources (cf. Hynd & Willis, 1988;Tramontana & Hooper, 1988;Welsh & Pennington, 1988) suggest important potential differences in brain-behavior relationships for children versus adults. Basing assessments of children on scaled-down versions of adult assessment tools is, at best, a tenuous practice.…”

“…It was and still is popular (Hynd, Snow & Becker,1986;Rabin, Barr & Burton, 2005Akhutina & Melikyan, 2012). However, it was met with some criticism from American and Russian neuropsychologists (Akhutina & Tsvetkova, 1983 on adult version;Hynd et al, 1986;Tramontana & Hooper, 1988 on the children revision). Following Luria's pioneer work, Das and colleagues (see e.g., Das, Kar & Parrila, 1996) conceptualized Planning as one of the major cognitive processes in the PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive processing) theory of intelligence.…”

Luria is one of the most influential authors in cognitive neuroscience, and in particular neuropsychology. New scientific achievements and clinical observations have significantly supported many of his suggestions and hypotheses. The article describes the basic concepts of neuropsychological evaluation and rehabilitation, associated with the method of syndrome analysis developed by Luria for diagnosis mental function and focus in the qualitative interpretation of the results neuropsychological diagnosis. Luria is regarded as a pioneer in cognitive rehabilitation. His ideas have maintained relevance and have continued to be developed and analyzed. Luria is presented as one of the major founders of contemporary neuropsychology from the fundamental point of view and the clinical perspective. His influence has continued significantly during the 21st century.

“…However, the approach has a number of shortcomings. As some leading Russian and foreign neuropsychologists point out, the results of the diagnostics -expert estimates -are highly dependent on subjective factors: clinical experience, qualification, the theoretical approach of the expert and his/her individual style of conducting neuropsychological assessment (for a review, see [7][8][9]). Consequently, the results of the assessments obtained by different neuropsychologists are often incompatible; they do not have sufficient reliability.…”

The article presents a new computer-based test battery of neuropsychological assessment in 6–9-year-old children. The battery consists of seven tests for assessing executive functions, functions of activation regulation, functions of visual-spatial information and auditory information processing. The following tests are describedin the article: the Dots task, two-colored Schulte–Gorbov tables, Corsi block span test and Understanding of Similar Sounding Words test. The battery is developed in the software platform ‘MSU-Practice’ (http://psychosoft.ru). The system allows researchers to conduct the tests, collect data and analyze them. In addition, it includes cloud service to support the collaboration of different research groups. A total of 21 preschoolers, 52 first-graders and 114 second-graders took part in a pilot study. All three groups of children took the four computer tests and went through a neuropsychological assessment adapted for children between the ages of 5 and 9. The correlation analysis showed consistency between the results of the computertests and the results of the neuropsychological assessments. This allowed us to conclude that the new computer methodology is sufficiently sensible and valid to assess different components of higher mental functions in children. Keywords: neuropsychology, higher mental functions, primary school children, cognitive functions, computer-based tests
