Another reason for optimism about further brain development in adults is that some psychiatric disturbances may be due to impairments in integrative functioning among widely distributed, sometimes bilateral processes.103 These impairments may be due to the failure to develop associative neural pathways linking relatively autonomous modules of processing. This is consistent with our proposal over the last two decades that mental health emerges from integration and that psychiatric disturbances are due to impediments to integration. There is preliminary support for clinical assessment aimed at identifying such integrative impairments (as revealed in the states of chaos or rigidity), and then focusing interventions on promoting integration.104 The creation of new neural integrative links is part of a learning process that remains possible throughout adulthood. Addressing the issue of the emergent properties of neural systems in development, Post and Weiss suggest:
