Stories of Hope, Positive Future Orientation, Possible Selves, and Academic Achievement Motivation in Adolescence
The concepts of future orientation and possible selves provide a means for understanding how future hopes inform motivational behavior among adolescents engaged in identity exploration. Limited research is available on the specific contribution of possible selves to achievement motivation during adolescent development. This study was designed to explore the relationship between future orientation and possible selves to broaden understanding of their unique roles in predicting academic achievement motivation for a sample of youth in southern California. It was hypothesized that positive future orientation and hoped for possible selves would predict academic achievement motivation, using narative descriptions of hoped for possible selves to mediate the influence of future orientation on academic acliievernent motivation. Results indicated significant correlation between positive future orientation and academic achievement motivation. The proposed mediation model could not be tested due to insignificant correlations among the remaining variables. Limitations of measurement and areas for future research are discussed.

Rare Conditions, Diagnostic Challenges, and Controversies in Clinical Neuropsychology
This book highlights those rare, difficult to diagnose or controversial cases in contemporary clinical neuropsychology. The evidence base relevant to this type of work is almost by definition insufficient to guide practice, but most clinicians will encounter such cases at some point in their careers. By documenting the experiences and learning of clinicians who have worked with cases that are ‘out of the ordinary’, the book addresses an important gap in the literature. The book discusses 23 challenging and fascinating cases that fall outside what can be considered routine practice. Divided into three sections, the text begins by addressing rare and unusual conditions, defined as either c...
