TY - JOUR PY - 1990// TI - Psychiatric and neuropsychological pathologies in court: an interactional approach JO - Medicine and law A1 - Nachum, B. A1 - Klag, E. A1 - Levy, A. SP - 1214 EP - 1218 VL - 9 IS - 6 N2 - Pathological functioning is often diagnosed in terms of either psychiatric dysfunction or neuropsychological deficits. There is, however, a growing belief that such an 'either or' approach is inadequate. The proposition is put forward that a 'situational diagnosis' allows for a more comprehensive assessment of behaviour and a more accurate evaluation of an offender's legal responsibility.
