McCallum, R. Steve; Glynn, Shawn M. – 1979
Research relating to the relationship between hemispheric specialization and creativity is explored with particular emphasis on implications for elementary education. Physiological and psychological evidence is examined for the construct that hemispheric specialization means that the two hemispheres of the human brain are specialized for different…

Whitaker, Harry A. – 1968
This paper is part of a current dissertation project exploring the relationships between constructs in linguistic theory and pattern of language behavior in aphasic adults. The author feels that linguists have done little enough work in the area of speech pathology yet they have discussed at length the distinction between competence and…

Kristy, Jean; McDaniel, Lucy V. – 1968
Designed by physical therapists on the basis of results of job analysis and tested with several individual and two small groups, this programed text and plate booklet are intended for either individual or group use in a hospital or junior college program. It is suggested that some discussion, demonstration, and application sessions be arranged in…

Abrahamson, Stephen; Barrows, Howard S. – 1969
This report describes a curriculum development project aimed at improving the teaching of neurology to undergraduate medical students; and providing more effective instruction in neurology for the practicing physician. The project involved: (1) development of a balanced presentation of neurological teaching from undergraduate medical education…

Dubey, Dennis R. – American Journal of Orthopsychiatry, 1976
The role of organic factors in childhood hyperkinesis is evaluated, with a review of research on electroencephalographic, neurological, biochemical, pregnancy and birth, and genetic factors. (DB)
Descriptors: Biochemistry, Biological Influences, Electroencephalography, Exceptional Child Research

Laguna, Jose F.; Stillman, Paula L. – Journal of Medical Education, 1978
The University of Arizona College of Medicine program described extends the role of practical instructor or programmed patient to that of evaluator and teacher of neurological examinations skills for preclinical medical students. The process may help improve the quality of medical education without increasing the size of clinical faculty. (LBH)

Wheatley, Grayson, H.; And Others – Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 1978
Evidence is presented for the theory that the two brain hemispheres process stimuli differently: the left hemisphere is specialized for logico-analytic tasks and the right hemisphere for visuo-spatial tasks. They contend that cognitive ability is related to the development of hemispheric asymmetry and present implications for mathematics education…

Bower, Bruce – Science News, 1987
Reviews cases which support the view that parts of the left hemisphere control languages, no matter how it is expressed, while right-side regions are involved only in skilled nonlinguistic movements and perceptions. Compares recent findings with previously held theories. (ML)

Vaughan, Christopher – Science News, 1988
Reviews research done on the nature of vision from a neurologic perspective. Proposes a multiplex filter model to explain patterns in the signals transmitted to the brain from the retina. Describes experiments done to test the model. (CW)
Descriptors: College Science, Eyes, Higher Education, Models

Miller, Julie Ann – BioScience, 1987
Describes some of the common principles underlying the operation of the cortex in an effort to understand the human brain. Discusses the structure of the cortex, its specific areas, and its map-making abilities. Describes some of the recent discoveries about brain operation, development and functioning. (TW)

Bishop, Beverly – Physiologist, 1985
Describes how a traditional neurophysiology laboratory has been computerized and how students work with digitizing on-line data. Points out advantages of computerization, including the speed, accuracy, and reliability in the acquisition, reduction, and analysis of data. Also describes four generic computer programs tailored to the particular…

Price, J. R.; And Others – Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, 1987
Assessment of nonvisual neuropsychological impairments in visually impaired persons can be achieved through modification of existing intelligence, memory, sensory-motor, personality, language, and achievement tests so that they do not require vision or penalize visually impaired persons. The Halstead-Reitan and Luria-Nebraska neuropsychological…

Cliburn, Joseph W., Jr. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 1986
Shows how a simple diagram of instructional concepts (concept map) can help the teacher to organize class material and reduce the likelihood of rote memorization. The example provided is used for sequencing of instruction for a unit on the nervous system. (JN)
