| | Cognitive neuropsychology |
 | | Cognitive neuropsychology is a branch of neuropsychology that aims to understand how the structure and function of the brain relates to specific psychological processes. | | | Cognitive neuropsychology also uses many of the same techniques and technologies from the wider science of neuropsychology and fields such as cognitive neuroscience. | | | Evidence that cognitive skills may be damaged independently seem to support this theory to some degree, although it is clear that some aspects of mind (such as belief for example) are unlikely to be modular. |

| | Experimental neuropsychology is an approach which uses methods from experimental psychology to uncover the relationship between the nervous system and cognitive function. | | | Cognitive neuropsychology is a relatively new development and has emerged as a distillation of the complimentary approaches of both experimental and clinical neuropsychology. | | | Neuropsychology is a branch of psychology that aims to understand how the structure and function of the brain relates to specific psychological processes. |

| | In comparison, cognitive neuropsychology is focused primarily on explaining disordered behavior in terms of disruption to particular information-processing units, with only peripheral concern for their anatomical or physiological stance. | | | Neuropsychology attempts to explain human behavior through a structural organization of the brain that represents the brain-behavior relationship. | | | Clinical neuropsychology is concerned with explaining how specific patterns of disordered human behavior may arise from disruption of particular brain processes. |

| | Re: Topic 1: Cognitive Neuropsychology |
| | Cognitive neuropsychology is an interdisciplinary approach, which as the term suggests, brings together cognitive psychology and neuropsychology. | | | In contrast, neuropsychology views the neuron as the unit of behaviour and attempts to localise brain damage in patients and map brain structure to cognitive functions. | | | Guided by the theoretical framework, (such as the various hypothetical models of memory), provided by cognitive psychology, it combines both behavioural and physiological methods to study cognitive processes. |

| | Narrative Psychology: Neuropsychology and Cognitive Psychology |
| | While neuropsychology and cognitive psychology most frequently employ research methods grounded in either experimental or clinical medical approaches, the brain's functioning raises significant narrative concerns. | | | Other cognitive researchers are interested in the development of narrative skills -- how children begin to cast experience in story-like forms and learn to comprehend the elements of story such as agency, plot, character, and so on. | | | But, to those who experience such compromise in the nervous system through insult or injury, fundamental issues may arise about the very sense of self, of who is that patient now coping with changes to the sensorium, perception, motor abililities, or the faculties of central processing. |
