对71名癫痫儿童和35名普通学校非癫痫儿童的注意力不集中或相关行为的不同方面进行了评估。两组人的年龄和教育情况相似。癫痫男孩的老师和家长认为,癫痫男孩比非癫痫男孩更容易注意力不集中和过度活跃,他们在持续注意力和知觉准确性测试中的表现也明显较差。癫痫和非癫痫女孩之间没有这种差异。癫痫组之间的这种差异并不归因于药物作用或EEG异常。听觉刺激降低了非癫痫儿童的感知准确性,但对癫痫组有有益的影响。教师对注意力不集中的评价与其他指标并不一致。癫痫男孩在行为上明显比癫痫女孩更脆弱,但这并不仅仅是一般儿童性别差异的反映。教师关于注意力不集中的说法很难解释,学校里的问题行为需要精确地说明。
Different aspects of inattentiveness or related behavior were assessed in 71 children with epilepsy and in 35 nonepileptic children attending ordinary school. Both groups were of similar age and educational circumstances. Epileptic boys were significantly more inattentive and overactive than nonepileptic boys according to their teachers and parents, and they performed significantly less well on tests of sustained attention and perceptual accuracy. No such differences were seen between epileptic and nonepileptic girls. This contrast between the epileptic groups was not attributable to drug effects or EEG abnormalities. Auditory stimulation reduced the perceptual accuracy of nonepileptic children but had a beneficial effect on epileptic groups. Teachers'' ratings of inattentiveness were not consistently correlated with other measures. Epileptic boys are apparently behaviorally more vulnerable than epileptic girls but not simply as a reflection of sex related differences in children in general. Teachers'' statements about inattentiveness are difficult to interpret and problem behavior at school needs to be specified precisely.
