Abstract
Two training models in neuropsychology have been recently proposed (Guidelines of the INS-Division 40 Task Force on Education, Accreditation, and Credentialing, Clin. Neuropsychol. 1: 29-34, 1987; Hannay, H. J. et al., Anh. Clin. Neuropsychol. 13: 157-250,1998). When comparing both educational models, similarities but also differences are found. According to the Houston Conference model--but not to the former model--neuropsychology represents a specialty of psychology. In the Houston Conference training model, applied knowledge is overtly emphasized, whereas fundamental or basic knowledge in neuropsychology appears weak. The proposed program does not seem to provide sufficient emphasis and background knowledge in (1) History of neuropsychology, (2) Neuropsychological syndromes, and (3) Neuropsychology theory.
