One of the best cognitive books I've ever read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
A must for those who are familiar with Luria's works, Assessment of Cognitive Processes is a wonderful book, explaining the best intelligence theory to date: the PASS theory of intelligence. Focusing more on abilities and not in capacities or mere base of knowledge, the PASS stands for Planning, Attention, Simultaneous and Successive processes. I use a lot this theory in conceptualizing my cognitive and neurocognitive cases. The PASS Remedial Pogram (PREP) who stand for PASS Reading Enhancement Program is very useful for children with reading disorders, training them to develop Succesive and Simultaneous strategies. A wonderful addition to the field. If you are a cognitive psychologist or a school psychologist and do a lot of work with children this is the right book for and introduction to remedial instruction
The best of all cognitive thoeries
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I read this book in 1994 when it wasn released and, to date, I've taken 4 seminars with Dr. Jack Naglieri about the PASS theory and the Cognitive Assessment System. I use the PASS theory as a Counseling and Rehabilitation Psychologist and its useness is wonderful.The Planning and Attention subtests were missing on other cognitive batteries, although they overlap too much on the CAS. I'm working on doing the PREP, the Remedial instruction program, in Spanish. More studies need to be done with the CAS but it is a wonderful test and the PASS a wonderful theory. If you are a psychologist that have a great mastery of the neuropsychological framework and have a knowledge of Luria's works, then this book is for you
Adds greatly to the field of intellectual assessment
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
The PASS theory of intelligence brings together research from many places into a coherent theory. If this theory holds true, it may restore credibility to the field of intellectual assessment and offer promise for thousands of learning disabled individuals. Many currently used instruments for measuring intelligence are based on 100 year old ideas. Many of the newer ones have not lived up to their promise in practical terms of understanding and remediating learning disabilities. The far transfer of remediating deficits in successive processing to improvement in basic academic skills is exciting and warrants more research.
