| Abstract | Neuropsychology, which is targeted at patients with cerebral disease or injury, has two major roles; one is a role as a neuroscience method to understand the mechanism of human brain, and the other is a role as a part of clinical medicine for evaluating and analyzing symptoms of patients with cerebral damage for diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, contemporary interpretation and direction regarding the two roles of neuropsychology were discussed. |
