Research Abstract |
This study was performed in order to examine the cognitive abilities of children with attention-deficit / hyperactivity disorder (AD/HD) and pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) by using the neuropsychological test. Differences in cognitive profile were observed in AD/HD and PDD aged 5 to 15 years compared to the age matched typically developing children by the Keio version Wisconsin Card Sorting Test. Concerning the educational supports for children with developmental disorders, some examples of practical applications of the neuropsychological tests were presented.
