Summary
In the early 20th century, neurologists studied patients with brain injuries for treating them. Cognitive neuropsychologists today have a number of goals depending on the type of work they do. Clinical neuropsychologists work with patients who have suffered brain damage. They are interested in conducting a detailed analysis of the problems and strengths of patients in order to provide them with appropriate assistance. Neuropsychological research is aimed at finding out what patient concerns tell us about the cognitive functions affected by brain damage and what can be done to help individual patients. Four main goals of neuropsychologists can be distinguished: – Localizing the lesion – Assessing patient defects
