Attention, Balance and Coordination - das ABC des Lernerfolgs

Effects of Neuromotor Immaturity in Children with Specific Learning Difficulties and Behavioral Issues

This work now presents the translation of the authoritative handbook on the physical foundations of learning and behavior for professionals involved in education and child development, written by the recognized author of several well-regarded titles on this subject. It describes the fundamentals of the INPP method, developed by the INPP (Institute for Neuro-Physiological Psychology) over the past 40 years, which provides a fundamentally new understanding of the causes of specific learning and behavioral difficulties. The book offers a comprehensive overview of the relationship between neuromotor maturity and physical development concerning learning and behavior in childhood and later life.

It explains why early reflexes are important, what functions they serve in early development, and what effects they have on learning, behavior, and other aspects of development such as posture, balance, and motor skills when they have not been successfully integrated.

The work includes the current extensive research background behind the individual questions of the INPP screening questionnaire, along with guidance on its use and interpretation. Additionally, it provides up-to-date information on the role of the vestibular system in anxiety and agoraphobia, a separate chapter with case studies, as well as a guest contribution from Dr. Peter Blythe on the development of the INPP method and an epilogue that places the INPP method in a broader scientific context.
