The birth of clinical psychology in the scientific work of Lightner Witmer [La nascita della psicologia clinica nell'opera di Lightner Witmer sui bambini con ritardo mentale.]
No full textThe paper deals with the beginning of Clinical Psychology in the first years of XX century, when a central role was played by the theoretical and practical approach on mental retardation and behavioural disorders of L. Witmer. The author describes the cultural formation of Witmer, between Structural Psychology and Functionalism, and the special attention he devoted to the management and education of children affected by mental retardation and behavioural problems. ... Any child, the functions of whose brain are not developed up to the normal limit for his age, is suffering from retardation ... Retardation must be defined in terms of individual capacity for physical and mental development...
Dexterity and Degeneracy, for a 'Neural Phenomenology'
No full textThe historical and epistemological dimensions of two common concepts today in use in cognitive neurosciences will be explored: 'degeneracy' of the nervous system and behavioral 'dexterity'. The common idea - related to plasticity, redundancy, and individual variability (all constitutive features of the new model of the mind-body relationship) – will be proposed as a key to understand the connection between development and functioning of the central nervous system and the development of the cognitive system in complex behaviors

No full textThe aim of this work is to show there exist free boundary minimal surfaces of Saddle Tower type which are embedded in a vertical solid cylinder of H^2×R, H^2 being the hyperbolic plane, and invariant under the action of a vertical translation and a rotation. The number of boundary curves equals 2l,l⩾2. These surfaces come in families depending on one parameter and they converge to 2l vertical stripes having a common intersection line
