The official journal of The American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology

The purpose of The Clinical Neuropsychologist (TCN) is to provide in-depth discussions of matters germane to the concerns of the practicing clinical neuropsychologist.  Clinical neuropsychology is a rapidly expanding field and as such, there is much need for airing of models, concepts, and positions with respect to educational, clinical, and professional issues. The journal is designed to provide a forum for such presentations and discussions. Areas of coverage that are of particular interest are as follows: 

  • descriptions and evaluations of educational and training programs
  • clinical issues (including assessment, treatment, and new measurement techniques)
  • professional issues (including forensic, credentialing, and ethical matters)
  • publication and test reviews (solicited by the Editors)
  • commentary/forum (on all aspects of the foregoing)

Grand Rounds in Clinical Neuropsychology, a new section in TCN, is devoted to case presentations of interesting, timely, important, or unusual cases. Cases of interest to be considered may represent unusual presentations of well-known disorders/syndromes, rarely seen disorders, ‘classic’ or prototypical neuropsychological syndromes (textbook presentations), or other cases of distinction. Adult and child cases will be considered. Criteria for publication include a well-documented history of the patient, medical/neurologic/psychiatric findings, neuroimaging (preferred, but not required), neuropsychological evaluation, discussion, and conclusions. Cases should be instructive and focus on the contributions that competent neuropsychological assessment makes in terms of (1) elucidating brain-behavior relationships; (2) determining the functional status of patients; and (3) instructing intervention, treatment, rehabilitation, education, etc.

TCN Grand Rounds in Clinical Neuropsychology, unlike the aims and scope of Neurocase, a sister publication of T&F, will not focus on elucidating theoretical aspects of brain-behavior relations, but instead will focus on well-known and documented aspects of “behavioral geography” particularly as illustrated in neurological or neuropsychiatric conditions.
