It is a concept widely explored in psychological literature (Haight, 1991; Haight and Hendrix, 1995; Hendrix and Haight, 2002), with different terms being used: life review, oral history, life history, life reflection, auto-biography, and narratives. The reason for this widespread interest is the belief that reminiscence can help a person to age ‘successfully’ (Butler, 1963). It is described as: a means to understand and come to terms with one’s own past; a pleasant, satisfying activity; a way to communicate and make contact; a way to earn recognition; and finally, a means to get a better understanding of changes (Coleman, 1986; Gibson, 1994).","PeriodicalId":412658,"journal":{"name":"The British Journal of Development Disabilities","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129314016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In a previous arti-cle, Pretorius and coworkers in 2002 hy-pothesised and presented empiricalevidence that infants who suffered fromhigh levels of bilirubin appear to recoverfully, but present with learning difficultieslater when exposed to an educational en-vironment. In the current article, we in-vestigate the hypothesis further bypresenting results from an empiricalstudy where neurological integration, as itrelates to learning, was assessed amongparticipants who presented with excessbilirubin levels at birth. The Quick Neuro-logical Screening Test - Revised Edition(QNST) (Mutti et al., 1978), consisting of aseries of 15 observed tasks that help iden-tify children and adults with learning dif-ficulties, was used. Results derived fromthis study suggest that neurological inte-gration, as it relates to learning, is im-paired. Furthermore, extremely shortattention span, distractibility, andimpulsivity were observed. The resultsobtained in the previous study suggestedinadequate non-verbal concept formation,including perceptual organisation, spatialvisualisation and orientation. Concentra-tion and visual-motor integration werealso found to be impaired. These findingsare also in keeping with results derivedfrom the present study.

He makes the further point that in the Western world it has been believed until very recently that rights were linked to corresponding obligations. Now, he argues, people claim rights without seeing themselves as having any corresponding obligations. In fact, the common mentality now appears to be ‘the rights are mine, the obligations are yours’. Wolfensberger singles out for criticism the kind of assertiveness training promoted by collective self-advocacy groups. Whilst he accepts that elements of it are certainly adaptive, one should never teach assertiveness outside the contents of a broader preparation for life and without regard to the characteristics of the person at issue. Particular concern is expressed at the radicalisation of the advocacy movement its increasingly confrontational stance and the strident tone which threatens to antagonise and alienate those whose support is vital if appropriate services are to be developed.
