Abstract
In recent years, the field of child neuropsychology has undergone tremendous growth. There has been a burgeoning interest in the neuropsychological assessment of children with disorders of the central nervous system, systemic medical illnesses, neurodevelopmental and related learning disabilities, and psychiatric disorders (Taylor & Fletcher, 1990). Recent surveys indicate that a significant proportion of neuropsychologists now devote most of their clinical services to children and adolescents (Putnam & DeLuca, 1990; Slay & Valdivia, 1988; Sweet & Moberg, 1990). The special concerns of these neuropsychologists are reflected in the substantial and growing literature devoted to the scientific and applied aspects of child neuropsychology (e.g., Baron, Fennell, & Voeller, 1995; Obrzut & Hynd, 1986a, 1986b; Pennington, 1991; Reynolds & Fletcher-Janzen, 1989; Rourke, Bakker, Fisk, & Strang, 1983; Rourke, Fisk, & Strang, 1986; Spreen, Risser, & Edgell, 1995; Yeates, Ris, & Taylor, in press.
