AB Human  behavior  is  complex.  When  it  becomes  dysfunctional  because  of  environmental  stress  or  brain  disease  it  can  mystify  the  inexperienced  clinician.  This  is  especially  true  of  neurobehavioral  disorders,  which  involve  neuropsychiatric  changes  in  cognition  and  emotion  that  overlap  the  boundary  of  psychiatry  and  neurology.  The  clinician  must  appreciate  and  assess  the  signs  and  symptoms  of  neurobehavioral  disorder  with  the  same  discernment  as  in  physical  syndromes  such  as  myocardial  infarction  or  infectious  disease.
