	Alexander Luria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alexander Romanovich Luria Александр Романович Лурия (July 16, 1902-1977) was a famous Russian neuropsychologist.
		On the 16th of July 1902, Luria was born in Kazan, a small town east of Moscow.
		Luria has helped start the Psychology department of the Moscow State University, and was one of its key professors.

	The Working Brain: Introduction to Neuropsychology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Luria quickly emphasized that it would be wrong to attempt to localize complex psychological processes through narrow localizationism and that complex behaviors are the result of the activity in the whole brain rather than the result of local areas of the cerebral cortex.
		Luria, in conclusion to the introductory description of these three functional units of the brain, asserts the importance of the interaction between the three units by noting each form of conscious activity is a complex functional system that could not take place without combined action of all three functional units.
		Luria describes "Bàlint’s simultaneous agnosia" as when a patient with lesions of the parieto-occipital cortex causes the patient to be unable to perceive a group of objects or grasp a complete situation, such as a thematic picture.

	Alexander Luria
		Luria was not exempted from this general requirement, all the more so since he had been associated with a school of psychology that had come under special scrutiny in the past.
		What Luria fashioned was an experimental approach that has its closest parallel in studies contained in The nature of human conflicts, but with a conceptual structure that grew directly out of the basic principles of the sociohistorical school and a language that was thoroughly Pavlovian.
		Luria's summary of Vygotsky's views (which he had a large role in shaping) makes it clear that his idea of theory is an enterprise infinitely more ambitious than all those undertaken by any but a handful of psychologists from other countries.

	The Resolution of the Crisis in Psychology
		Luria (1979) begins his autobiography with a discussion of the science of psychology he inherited, and how he had, from his earliest research, sought a way to combine the two psychologies, one experimental/ generalizing, one descriptive/ particularizing.
		So, for example, Luria is able to use his knowledge of the general laws of memory to help Sharashevsky develop a way to "erase" memories of numbers sets when he was earning his living as a mnemonist who conducts several shows a night.
		Equally important in my view is the fact that both Luria and Sachs are therapists who engaged their patients as human beings over long periods of time and attempted to demonstrate through practical amelioration of suffering the truth of the basic premisses of their theories.

	Soviet Psychology: Alexander Luria (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		It was in the course of this work that he developed the first, rudimentary techniques for combining experimental procedures with the free-association technique; he used an old Hipp chronoscope to measure the reaction time of workers, at different levels of fatigue, who were asked to associate to various verbal stimuli.
		Luria, whose research on worker fatigue using reaction time methods made him a pioneer reactologist in Kornilov's eyes.
		It not only was relevant to an experimental psychoanalysis (an idea Luria was no longer pursuing when the book was written in 1930) but had promising potential for application, which Luria pursued in the criminal justice system, where he developed the combined-motor method, into the prototype of the modern lie detector.

		One hand is to be held steady while the other is used to press a key or squeeze a rubber bulb in response to verbal stimuli presented by the experimenter, to which the subject is asked to respond verbally with the first word to come to mind.
		In the late 1950's Luria was permitted to return to the study of neuropsychology, which he pursued until his death of heart failure in 1977.

		Alexander Romanovich Luria once commented that Lev Semyonovich Vygotsky (but initially spelled 'Vygodsky') was a genius.
		Luria felt that all of his work had been no more than the working out of the psychological theory which Vygotsky had constructed.
		Alexander Romanovich Luria was indeed correct when he once commented that Vygotsky was truly a genius!

		Born July 16, 1902 in Kazan, Russia, Aleksander Romanovich Luria was the son of Jewish parents: Roman A. Luria, a physician, and Eugenia Hasskin.
		One of Luria's earliest interests centered on psychoanalytic theory as a possible solution to the problem of understanding both the lawfulness of human behavior generally and the individual's particularity as a behavioral agent.
		In the early- to mid-1930s, Luria carried out two major field expeditions in the steppes of central Asia among the Uzbek and Kirghiz peoples to detail the impact of cultural change (brought about by the Russian Revolution and formation of the Soviet state) upon a range of cognitive processes.

		This is a very brief summary of Alexander Luria’s model of brain functioning, based on his years of experience as a neuropsychologist in Russia.
		Luria noticed that cooperation and interaction across relatively large anatomical regions could account for the control and functioning of all human cognition.
		Although this system denotes three discrete anatomical and functional units, Luria did not mean to imply that they work in isolation form each other.

		The title of my talk is ambiguous on purpose: I mean the past century -- that of Alexander Luria's (1902-1977) birth anniversary -- but also the 21st century.
		After crises of the past, this century should become, on Luria opinion, the era of psychology.
		Due to this development, the very way of doing basic and applied research in psychology has been changed in the late 90s towards more neuropsychologically motivated modeling and argumentation.
