神经行为评估系统是为工人的实地研究而设计的，但许多NES测试可以由7岁或8岁的儿童满意地完成，少数测试，如简单反应时，可以由学龄前儿童进行。然而，很少有来自不同年龄或年级水平的儿童的比较数据。对捷克共和国学龄儿童的研究表明，二年级儿童可以满意地完成以下NES测试：手指敲击、视觉数字广度、连续操作、符号-数字替换、模式比较和更简单的注意力转移条件。二年级、四年级和八年级的男生和女生的比较分数和力量分析被用来估计合适的样本量。成绩随年级和性别的不同而有系统的变化。年龄较小的儿童需要更大的样本，才能达到类似的统计能力水平。性别比较表明，男孩的反应比女孩更快，但犯的错误比女孩更多。
The Neurobehavioral Evaluation System was designed for field studies of workers, but many NES tests can be performed satisfactorily by children as young as 7 or 8 years old and a few tests, such as simple reaction time, can be performed by preschool children. However, little comparative data from children of different ages or grade levels are available. Studies of school children in the Czech Republic indicate that 2nd-grade children could perform the following NES tests satisfactorily: Finger Tapping, Visual Digit Span, Continuous Performance, Symbol-Digit Substitution, Pattern Comparison, and simpler conditions of Switching Attention. Comparative scores of boys and girls from the 2nd, 4th, and 8th grades and power analyses to estimate appropriate sample size were presented. Performance varied systematically with grade level and gender. Larger samples were needed with younger children to achieve comparable levels of statistical power. Gender comparisons indicated that boys responded faster, but made more errors than girls.
