Description

Explore the complex processes of psychological compensation with this professional resource from Psychology Press. This text examines how individuals manage the gap between their current skills and the demands of their environment. It provides a deep look into how these mismatches occur and the methods used to reduce or close these gaps. The book addresses various causes of skill-demand mismatches, including losses related to aging or changes in interpersonal roles. It also covers neurological or sensory injuries, organic and functional diseases like schizophrenia or dementias, and congenital deficits such as autism and learning disabilities. Whether these gaps can be bridged completely or only partially is a central theme of the work. This book serves as a foundational resource for understanding how psychological systems adapt to changes and deficits, making it a valuable addition to any professional library focused on mental health and human development.
