    Luria (1962/1980)considers the question about localization of mental functions in a new perspective: each mental function is based on the integrated and integrated functioning of different brain regions united into brain “functional systems”. This interpretation required the development of an appropriate methodologic approach to elucidate the funct...

    Common features in the symptoms of disturbance of different mental functions point to the existence of a common factor that underlies these functions. Luria thought that the search of common features in the symptoms within a syndrome increases the reliability of the results. Therefore “syndrome analysis” should become the main method in the neurops...

    The systemic approach to the problem of localization higher psychological functions defines the basic principles for rehabilitation. In general, the rehabilitation of functional deficits, caused by damage of central nervous system, is associated with the restructuring of the higher psychological functions and the brain functional systems. The metho...

    Theoretical foundations of cognitive rehabilitation were laid after the Second World War in his books “Traumatic aphasia” (1947/1970) and “Restoration of functions after brain injury” (1948/1963). In these books Luria described two main strategies of higher mental functions rehabilitation: disinhibition of inhibited functional components, and reorg...

    Luria’s ideas developed specially during the mid 20th century have significantly impacted the further development of neuropsychology. New neuropsychological assessment procedures and cognitive rehabilitation techniques have been developed during the late 20th and early 21st century based in his conceptual interpretations about the brain organizatio...
