They occur against a background of ongoing physical and cognitive development. Cognitive capacities often change with time post-injury. But for children changes are affected by two processes of functional plasticity, one concerned with recovery, one with development. The impact of the injury is moderated by age\/developmental stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn recent years there has been a new focus on the longitudinal comparison of children post-injury with appropriate control groups. Advances in neuropsychological assessment have permitted evaluation with reference to more developmentally suitable norms; expanded definitions of outcome have broadened our understanding of consequences; and neuroimaging techniques have enabled the more precise delineation of injury severity, the study of structure-function outcome relations, and the investigation of reorganization of function. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis special issue offers an overview of cutting-edge approaches to the analysis of childhood head injury.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Maureen Dennis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805895647\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805895643\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Psychology Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.94h x 6.00w x 0.49d","brand":"Maureen Dennis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47036567355647,"sku":"9780805895643","price":71.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0c9cc694-39db-48d6-bfb3-33695a1fd1b2.jpg?v=1752637965","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/childhood-head-injury-maureen-dennis-9780805895643","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
