What do you think? Is this for a report?

No idea. Do you mean a report for me or I'm doing a report?
 
Do we even know what a neural psychologist does?

I think berkman's asking if you're doing a school project, tgt.

When you google the phrase and read through the hits, what have you learned? Help us help you. That's what the PF is all about. There are no spoons here...
 
Google "neuropsychology".

I think it's flattering that folks think we know more than Google. :biggrin:

tgt, just to clarify the confusion above, the question is so vague with no context that we're not sure if you were assigned this topic for coursework, or if you have some other reason to have this particular question pop into your mind. That's why people are hesitating to give you answers if they know them.

Thanks for clarifying. Now my turn. I like to know what it would be like to visit such a specialist. What gain is there? No, I'm not doing it for a report.

On the side, how developed is the theory? I realize not much is known about the brain.
