BRAIN

IMPAIRMENT OF THE HUMAN BRAIN CAN RESULT FROM MANY FACTORS SUCH AS INJURY AT BIRTH, EXPOSURE TO TOXINS BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER BIRTH, AND TRAUMATIC INJURY FROM ACCIDENTS. THE EXTENT OF THE IMPAIRMENT RELATES DIRECTLY TO THE TYPE OF INJURY AND TO THE EXTENTOF THE INJURY.

The following chart shows various cognitive functions of the human brain that can be impaired by various sources that cause cognitive impairment.

The following diagram describes a behavioral model of the "typical" learning process versus the "atypical" process in the case of a cognitive impairment.
