Learning Team Assignment: Case Study Analysis
·
Research the Electronic Reserve Readings, your text, and
the University Library for a single case study in biopsychology, neuroscience,
or neuoranatomy where an individual experienced a nervous system injury,
disease, or disorder that lead to a deficit in the one or more of the five
senses. For example, in the book, The Man
Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales, Dr. Oliver Sacks
discusses the case study titled “Eyes Right,” where Mrs. P. suffered a stroke
to the right occipital region of her brain, thereby leaving her with a
condition called “hemineglect,” where she completely lost the idea of left.
Everything in Mrs. P.’s understanding of her visual world comes only from
things she can see in her right visual field.
