Proponents of all approaches to neuropsychology have supported their claims on the grounds of undertaking a truly “scientific neuropsychology”. The claims assume that there is a particular approach to neuropsychological practice which is bias-free. They also assume that there is a particular kind of question which neuropsychology addresses. In this paper it is argued, however, that both as a clinical and a research enterprise, neuropsychologists ask a range of different kinds of questions, each of which has implications for the method used. Some of the kinds of questions addressed by neuropsychologists are discussed in the context of the methodological approaches invoked to answer them. It is argued that to situate discussion of method in context in this way is to legitimise methodological plurality in neuropsychology. The proposition is illustrated by a case study. |
