thread_title: ADHD

message: I'm going to be posting this around at a few of the affected articles, but I was thinking of creating a separate article comparing psychiatry and psychology and counseling in general.  I think there is a lot of confusion in the world as to the differences and similarities and Wikipedia could be a great resource to come to for those who aren't professionals in these related fields.
Kind of an example, psychiatrists carry a MD doctorate whereas psychologists & clinical psychologists carry a PhD doctorate.  Perhaps we could explain differences in training and specialties. (ie you'll find more psychologists counseling marriages then psychiatrists, but you'll find more psychiatrists treating mental illnesses then psychologists.)
Anyway, I wanted to create this article and perhaps link to it on many of the related articles.  Thoughts??? Chupper 20:09, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Psychiatry vs. psychology article? 

message: I can see that it has "Approaches" and "Methods" - does it have any results?  If so, can someone please include two or three of the most notable results of this line of inquiry?  I ask this with sincerity and respect.  Thanks! NuclearWinner 19:42, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Does neuropsychology have results?

message: For the most part the history section is very good, it has provided information that is appropriate and has been lacking. So overall, a good edit. However, the edition of this material has made the article rather unbalanced. The amount of info added in history is more than all other paragraphs combined. The added info isn't too detailed, its more that with the pre-existing info it is too lengthy. If the article was much larger I don't think the length would be a problem, but as it stands the history section dominates the article rather than adding to the article as a new section. Do others agree?
There are 2 possible solutions: 
I think the history info should be moved further down the article. As it is not really a dominant aspect of the field. 
Or, a  new "History of neuropsychology" article could be created and the history paragraph left where it is, but condensed into a single summary paragraph.
Thoughts?

replies: text: It definitely needs some serious editing.  Especially the "Then to Now Part"  A little too fluffy and a bit too lacking in objectivity.  "the inquisitive minds that dared to think there might be more to the mysterious organ called the brain"  This sounds like it was from a PR release or a middle school book report. 98.121.92.169 (talk) 06:30, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, and it also needs to be sourced. I think MitchMcM's second idea is the best. Lova Falk talk 14:08, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  History section 

message: This section is way too large. Any ordinary book about neuropsychology is listed here. My suggestion is to remove almost the whole section and to only allow books back in when an editor can show that it is outstanding. Please, comment! Lova Falk talk 12:42, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Further reading 

message: I believe the External links have grown a little out of control. Please see Wikipedia:External links and put only links back in that are in accordance with WP:ELYES or WP:ELNO, and please motivate why the link should be there. Thank you! Lova Falk talk 11:41, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  External links 

message: Also the section Further reading has grown out of control. Please see Wikipedia:Further reading and put only  entries that are topical, reliable and balanced, and please, keep the section limited in size. "Wikipedia is not a catalogue of all existing works." Thank you! Lova Falk talk 11:45, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Further reading 

message: This article doesn't do justice to the fact that currently neuropsychology is one of the larger areas being studied in psychology. Is that information to include here, or is that a root off of the neuroscience page? Iamwpj (talk) 23:31, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm having difficulty understanding you.  Are you saying that this article should include a statement similar to, "Currently neuropsychology is one of the larger areas being studied in psychology."?  Or are you saying something more than that? Looie496 (talk) 01:03, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Current research 

message: I see this article needs a lot of work, and deserves a lot of work as an article on an important topic. I'll see what I can do. The current "history" of the topic (mostly historical speculation, really) is much too long. Perhaps information about current practice can be added from the many sources already mentioned on this talk page. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 02:25, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
