Presented by: Clemente Vega, PsyD, ABPP-CN
About the Webinar: A neuropsychology that incorporates a “cross-culture” perspective must integrate the essential knowledge base of brain-behavior relationships and cognitive processes with an understanding of how brains are differently shaped by interacting in the world. Historically, ‘culture’ has not been consistently integrated into neuropsychological practice, and the focus in the past was mainly on tests and psychometrics. Furthermore, theoretical orientations with expansive or reductionist perspectives on human behavior such as relativism and universalism are not supported as originally applied. In recent decades, it has become increasingly clear that a cross-cultural approach to neuropsychological assessment must integrate many facets of human brain-behavior that are shared by all members of the species and the environment that shapes the development and presentation of behavior. Therefore, the application and interpretation of available psychological instruments when working with bilinguals vary from individual to individual, and must neuropsychologists must account for test limitations in the context of differences in languages, education/literacy, immigration/acculturation, behavioral approaches in testing, and other cultural factors.
