The field of behavioral sciences has a significant role to play in the diagnosis and management of high-risk and handicapped infants. This volume, published in 1979, addresses this critical issue and showcases the contributions that behavioral science can offer in understanding the cognitive consequences of perinatal high-risk factors. It highlights the inadequacies of some traditional measures used to assess intellectual competence in ******** individuals and presents sophisticated methodologies for documenting early mental abilities. Additionally, the book discusses assessment procedures that bypass reliance on neuromotor performance, imitation, or language production.
The authors emphasize the discontinuous nature of cognitive development, the possibility of independent mental and motor development, and the plasticity of the developing central nervous system. They highlight the importance of recognizing and stimulating underlying competences to overcome early deficits.
This volume goes beyond simply cataloging the child's accomplishments and deficits. It emphasizes the need to examine the child's potential for learning and provides various methodologies that can be valuable in documenting their continuing cognitive development. The authors aim to provide valuable insights and tools for professionals working with high-risk and handicapped infants, helping them to better understand and support these children's unique needs.
