Declining or Waning
- Traditional Neuropsychological Models:
There is a noticeable decrease in publications centered around traditional neuropsychological models that do not incorporate recent neuroscientific findings or socio-cultural perspectives, indicating a shift towards more integrative approaches. - Focus on Neurological Disorders:
Research specifically focusing on classical neurological disorders has waned, as more attention is being given to broader cognitive and psychological assessments and therapies, particularly in non-clinical populations. - Historical Perspectives in Neuropsychology:
The exploration of historical approaches and figures in neuropsychology is becoming less prevalent, as current research prioritizes contemporary methodologies and applications relevant to modern challenges. - General Population Studies:
Studies targeting general population neuropsychological assessments are declining, with a stronger emphasis on specific vulnerable groups, such as children with learning disabilities or individuals affected by socio-economic challenges.
