Dyslexia : an appraisal of current knowledge by
Arthur Lester Benton(
Book
)
6 editions published between 1978 and 1979 in English and held by 756 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The 22 chapters of this book provide an analysis of current thinking about the condition known as "developmental dyslexia,""specific reading disability," or "specific reading retardation." Leading investigators were commissioned to critically examine the scientific literature on dyslexia in various research areas and to write comprehensive state-of-the-art reviews. Topics of the major sections of the book are the nature and prevalence of dyslexia, psychological factors, neurobehavioral research, electroencephalographic and neurophysiological studies, genetic factors, early detection and preventive intervention, and remediation and instructional techniques. The conclusion notes that a satisfactory understanding of the nature of this disorder has not been achieved and that specific treatment and remediation methods of proven effectiveness have still to be developed.

Human aging; a biological and behavioral study by
National Institute of Mental Health (U.S.)(
Book
)
25 editions published between 1963 and 2009 in English and Undetermined and held by 635 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Many of the more serious public health problems of our day relate to the later years of life; and one of the most challenging issues for scholarly study is the mystery of the phenomenon of aging itself. This volume presents the efforts of 22 investigators and is primarily directed toward the understanding of the aging experience and the processes it involves. However, consonant with the premise of science that pure inquiry affords practical consequences, the public health implications of this work are obvious. Two strategies are clear in this study: first, the selection of the healthy, community-dwelling aged so that we may look anew at the prevailing ideas and research findings concerning the aged and aging which heretofore have stemmed primarily from studies of the sick and institutionalized; second, the introduction of the collaborative, multidisciplinary approach so that there can be a more complete and accurate evaluation of the many factors known, or believed, to determine the overt manifestations of aging. As important as the substantive findings, are the methods used in the research investigations. Despite the public health significance of the problems affecting the aged, ranging from sensory handicaps, to housing, to mental and physical illness, there has been a relative neglect of the study, care, and treatment of the aged. Basic inquiry into the final stages of life, therefore, is a welcome contribution to our public health effort in this country. It is opportune in many ways that this volume appears now at a time of increased national concern for the welfare of our older citizens and for the study and improvement of their health and welfare.

Understanding panic disorder by
Mary Lynn Hendrix(
Book
)
4 editions published between 1993 and 1995 in English and held by 224 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This booklet is part of the National Institute of Mental Health's efforts to educate the public and health care professionals about panic disorder. Discussed here are the causes, definition, and symptoms of the disorder. Panic attacks, which can seriously interfere with a person's life, may strike more than three million U.S. citizens at some time in their lives. Individuals who suffer panic attacks may also develop phobias, especially agoraphobia, in which a person avoids places or situations where help may not be forthcoming if an attack occurs. Treatment, it is claimed, can bring significant relief to 70 to 90 percent of people with panic disorder. Several kinds of treatment approaches, by themselves or in combination, may be effective: (1) cognitive-behavioral therapy, where the person modifies or eliminates troublesome thought patterns and behaviors; (2) pharmacotherapy, in which prescription medication is used both to prevent panic attacks or reduce their frequency and severity; and (3) psychodynamic therapy, where the therapist and the patient work together to uncover emotional conflicts which may underlie the patient's problems. Other conditions may accompany a panic disorder and health care personnel should be careful to identify these. The reader will find strategies and tips on how to cope with a panic attack, as well as information on where individuals may seek further help. (Rjm)
