CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY
Abstract
Several major impressions emerged from this brief review: 1) the study of cognitive functions from new vantage points, derived from information theory and ego psychology, holds promise for the future; 2) studies of psychological deficit in brain damage are still, to a large degree, concerned with diagnosis but increasing emphasis is being given to the study of patterns of impairment associated with different brain dysfunctions; 3) studies in schizophrenia are currently focused upon explication of the social, interpersonal and affective determinants of cognitive deficit as a function of pre-morbid status.
