Theoretical, Methodological, and Validational Bases of the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Test Battery
View through CrossRef
Abstract
After earning a Ph.D. in physiological and comparative psychology at Northwestern University in 1935, Ward Halstead moved to the University of Chicago, established a working relationship with two neurosurgeons, Percival Bailey and Paul Bucy, and started the first full-time laboratory for the examination and evaluation of brain-behavior relationships in human beings. Halstead’s first step in evaluating braindamaged patients was to observe them in their everyday living situations and attempt to discern which aspects of their behavior were different from the behavior of normal individuals. Fortunately, Halstead was relatively unencumbered by knowledge of the routine approach that existed in this era concerning the effects of brain damage. In fact, at this time and for quite a number of years previously, the principal approach of psychologists was to develop a single test that would diagnose brain damage.
