"This book will be a valuable resource for psychologists and educators who work with children or adolescents who are having difficulties with memory and learning. Translating theory and research into practice is a talent that Dr. Dehn possesses and we will benefit from his professional skills."
— From the Foreword by Daniel C. Miller, PhD, ABPP, ABSNP, NCSP

AN INDISPENSABLE GUIDE THAT EXAMINES THE EFFECT OF LONG-TERM MEMORY FUNCTIONS ON CHILDREN'S LEARNING

Long-Term Memory Problems in Children and Adolescents: Assessment, Intervention, and Effective Instruction is the first book of its kind for psychologists, school psychologists, and special education teachers who need an overview of long-term memory as it relates to learning and education. It presents the best practices for assessing long-term memory functions, as well as selecting and using evidence-based instructional practices with memory-impaired students.

This useful and timely guide bridges theory and practice to provide professional guidance with coverage of:

  • Risk factors that can lead to long-term memory impairments
  • How long-term memory relates to other types of memory
  • The subcomponents and processes of long-term memory and how they relate to academic achievement
  • What is known about the neuroanatomy of how memories are formed
  • The developmental trajectory of memory and learning
  • Common types of memory dysfunction
  • Memory assessment strategies, interventions for memory problems, and instructional practices that support memory
  • Author Milton Dehn draws on his extensive experience as a trainer and workshop presenter, school psychologist, and educator to present both the theory and research on long-term memory in children and adolescents in this book. Specific, step-by-step guidance and hands-on case studies enable professionals to identify how memory can be assessed as well as the interventions that can be linked to the results of the assessment.
