Abstract
The development and formation of modern scientific branches and disciplines lead to the emergence of new terminological units. It is particularly important for the international medical cooperation and a mutual exchange of experience. The study of neuropsychological terminology is aimed at the unification and standardization of special scientific units for the better understanding of current changes and appearing innovations. The article presents the results of the carried out multidimensional analysis concerning etymology, functioning and structure of English child neuropsychological terms. The conclusions concerning predominance of polylexemic terms in neuropsychology are made. Methods of statistical, component, comparative and etymological analyses are used. The analysis of terminology in the field of neuropsychology allows researchers to identify promising areas for its research and development.
