The Institutes for the Achievement of Human PotentialFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search The Institutes for The Achievement of Human Potential is a non-profit organization providing teaching programs and literature which it promotes as improving the health and neurological development of normal children and of children who have sustained a brain injury.
Although the institute's programs were supported by some notable individuals such as Linus Pauling (1901–1994) and Raymond Dart (1893–1988), their programs for brain injured children have been widely criticized.[1] According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, the institute's patterning treatment is based on an outmoded and oversimplified theory of brain development, its effectiveness is not supported by evidence-based medicine, and its use is unwarranted.[2]
IAHP has its own journal titled In-Report, which publishes results that are to be shared among fellow professionals.[3]
