摘要：Recent advances in understanding the child and adolescent brain provide helpful tools for social work practitioners and researchers interested in improving social, emotional, and behavioral outcomes in young people. We provide a rationale for including neuroscience in social work practice and research, and we offer an overview of brain basics and neuroimaging technologies used in research. Select neuroscience findings related to cognition and emotion that pertain to the identification, prediction, and treatment of physical and mental health of young people in early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence are discussed. Finally, we review potential benefits and limitations in the integration of neuroscience and social work, and we identify future directions for neuroscience and social work scholarship aimed at promoting healthy youth development.
