Outline of Final Research Achievements

Developmental disorders have biological bases and are influenced from social circumstances. Their developmental courses are not typical, and children and adults with them have various cognitive and behavioral problems. In this study, several neuro-cognitive measurements were performed, and some investigations for QOL and traits of developmental disorders were carried out.
Dorsolateral functions in visual processes, executive functions and working memory are supposed as common mechanisms for resiliency and vulnerability of the disorders. Event-related potentials, eye movements, etc. were measured and analyzed. Their results contributed to develop methods for support of children with them in reading and writing and so on. Improvements in supporting methods for adolescents with them and their parents were performed by suggestions from evaluative differences between their results for their QOL and the traits.
