Notizie dal Feuerstein Institute: New Study by the Feuerstein Cognitive Rehabilitation Center Team!

It is with great pleasure that we share the following article, written by the Feuerstein Institute's Cognitive Rehabilitation Center (CRC) team! This fascinating study expounds upon the work performed by the CRC and the role that the Feuerstein Method plays in rehabilitating individuals who have suffered Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). A must read for clinicians who work with patients recovering from brain injury, or anyone seeking help for their loved ones.

Abstract

This article presents the work carried out at the Feuerstein Institute in Jerusalem with people who have suffered Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). Over the last decade 105 people suffering from ABI have been treated: 61 people after a traumatic brain injury, 20 people after cerebrovascular accident, 11 after anoxic brain damage, 9 after brain tumours and 4 suffering from ABI, due to different diseases. The neurocognitive rehabilitation approach is based on Reuven Feuerstein’s theory of Structural Cognitive Modifiability (SCM). The theoretical and practical aspects of working with this population are expounded, and examples of treatment descriptions based on case studies are included.
We will explain the special value of working in the dynamic neurocognitive rehabilitation approach with the population of Acquired Brain Injured clients after they have completed the hospitalized rehabilitation phase.

Notizie dal Feuerstein institute: The Method in Action at the Ben Yakir Youth Village

The Ben Yakir Youth Village, located near Hadera, is home to adolescent boys from disadvantaged backgrounds. The majority of these teens come from poverty stricken families and broken homes. For many, the youth village is their last opportunity to turn their lives around and learn the skills required to integrate into Israeli society.

Two years ago, the school began implementation of the Feuerstein Method. When we began, the boys had great difficulty sitting still in the classroom, let alone paying attention to class instruction. 

Two years later – we have seen a tremendous turnaround in their behavior and academic ability. The students no matriculate at the same rate as the teens in normative schools throughout the country.

The best news of all was just shared with us by the youth village director – the graduating seniors have taken their psychotechnic (entrance exam) for the Israeli Air Force. On average, the Ben Yakir Youth Village students scored a 5.3 – well above the national average of 4!
