Abstract

RODRIGUES, Sônia das Dores  and  CIASCA, Sylvia Maria. Relationship between brain and behaviour: historical and neuropsychological considerations. Rev. psicopedag. [online]. 2010, vol.27, n.82, pp. 117-126. ISSN 0103-8486.

The objective of Neuropsychology is to study the relation between the brain and the behavior. Cerebral areas work together and lead to complex behaviors, such the learning. Damage or dysfunctions in anyone area of the nervous central system can produce learning disabilities. Then, it is important to understand the brain functions. The objective of this work is to make a revision about Neuropsychology since the historical civilization until the theory of Luria. We wait to motivate the search of knowledge about the complex functional system.

Keywords : Neuropsychology; Behavioral sciences; Psychophysiology; Cerebrum [physiology].
