| description | ABSTRACT. The aspects concerning memory from the point of view of clinical
neuropsychology seem to be unclear. Almost every malfunction of the central
nervous system (CNS) associated with problems in superior cognitive functions
has also been associated with a type of memory impairment, this being a usual
problem underlined by the patients (Reynolds, 2003; Fischer, 2004). In the cases
of traumatic brain injury (TBI), memory impairments seem to be the most
common among patients' problems (Mellick, 2004; Reynolds, 2005). This research
emphasizes several aspects concerning the assessment of memory functionality in
the case of children that suffer cerebral traumatic injuries, by using the assessment
tool TOMAL – Test of Memory and Learning. It also underlines the way children's
cognitive abilities change due to the traumatic injury. |
