I applied the case formulation analysis based on Wilson et al. (2009) . The apraxic behaviors of a patient with ideomotor apraxia (case 1) was analyzed by classical error analysis, and interventions on temporal and spatial organization of hand actions were effective. The cognitive neuropsychological model of action (Rothi et al. 1988) were applied to a conceptual apraxic patient (case 2) , and teaching semantic knowledge on object and tool of an action were effective to his difficulties of ADL. The case 3 showed Bálintʼs syndrome, Gerstmannʼs syndrome and depression. Adjusting location and direction of her body and objects were effective, and this strategy were applied to her ADL. Applying case formulation to the patient with neuropsychological disorders seemed to be useful to comprehensive intervention in neuropsychological rehabilitation.
