Rehabilitation planned in accordance with the Luria neuropsychological investigation: A case history of a patient with left sided aneurysm.

Changes in fMRI Following Cognitive Rehabilitation in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury: A Case Study.

“…The developmental metacognitive model of CRT was employed and is described in Laatsch and Stress (2000). The model is based on research and observations by Luria (1981), Bolger (1980), Christensen (1987), and Parente and Herrmann (1996), who have suggested that a developmental application of instruction optimizes the learning process. Specifically, basic cognitive abilities such as attention and concentration are the focus of rehabilitation before more advanced cognitive skills such as perception, memory, and problem solving are addressed (Laatsch & Stress, 2000).…”

Neuropsychology in Denmark

“…The publication of Luria's Neuropxychological Investigation (Christensen, 1975), apart from being a qualitative, diagnostic tool and used as such, promoted a new interest in neuropsychological rehabilitation. A few single-case studies were published, creating a new belief in the possibilities of regaining function in disturbed brain areas (Christensen, 1979;Christensen et al, 1987). Supported by public and private funds, the planning of the most effective program for intensive rehabilitation began in 1985 and has resulted in the publication of several outcome studies, as well as other studies that have dealt with the structure of the program and the evaluation of different clinical tools (Christensen et al, 1991;Teasdale and Christensen, 1994;Olsen et al, 1993).…”
