Tim Shallice
Timothy Shallice(born 1940) is aprofessorofneuropsychologyand the founding director[1]of theInstitute of Cognitive Neuroscience,part ofUniversity College London.He has been a professor at Cognitive Neuroscience Sector of theInternational School for Advanced Studies(SISSA) inTrieste,Italy since 1994 but is now retired.[2]
Shallice has been influential in laying the foundations for the discipline ofcognitive neuropsychology,by formalising many of its methods and assumptions in his 1988 bookFrom Neuropsychology to Mental Structure.He has also worked on many core problems incognitive psychologyand neuropsychology, includingexecutive function,languageandmemory.Together with psychologistDon Norman,Shallice proposed a framework of attentional control of executive functioning. One of the components of the Norman-Shallice model is thesupervisory attentional system.[3][4]The model is viewed as a possible realization ofAlexander Luria's theory in information-processing terms.[5]
Together with John Fox, Shallice was also awarded a grant on cognitive modelling by theUnited Kingdom's Joint Council Initiative in Cognitive Science and Human-Computer Interaction.[6]The project developed an existing specification language forcognitive modellingand resulted to a prototype COGENT system.[6]
Shallice also co-authored a study on the relationship of prospective and retrospective memory using neuropsychological evidence with Paul W. Burgess.[7]Shallice contributed in the development ofneuropsychological testsincluding theHayling and Brixton testsand the Behavioural Assessment of theDysexecutive Syndrome(BADS).[8]
He was elected aFellow of the Royal Societyin 1996.[9]
