Abstract

As a by-product of the cognitive revolution, a coherent theory of cognitive processing has challenged traditional methods of studying and measuring intelligence. The PASS (Planning, Attention, Simultaneous and Successive cognitive processing) theory of intelligence identifies three operational units that are important to understand mental functioning: attention, simultaneous and successive processing, and planning. The PASS theory of intelligence is based on the neuropsychological work of A.R.Luria. The PASS model is an alternative approach to measuring and studying intelligence. A remediation programme based on the PASS model is presented and its utility in improving the specific cognitive processes that underlie academic skills is discussed.
