Abstract

Interest in the neuropsychological basis of childhood and adolescent disorders continues to grow (Gaddes & Edgell, 1994; Obrzut & Hynd, 1991; Rourke, 1991), and neurocognitive models for designing effective interventions for treating various disorders show promise (Teeter & Semrud-Clikeman, in press). Technological innovations in computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), single-photon emission computer tomography (SPECT), positron emission tomography (PET), regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) (Yudofsky & Hales, 1992), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI) (Binder, personal communication) have transformed our understanding of numerous neuropsychiatric disorders (e.g., attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and learning disabilities (e.g., dyslexia).
