Research on New Neuropsychological Tests for Children with Developmental Disabilities

本研究的目的是为发育障碍儿童（智力迟钝、自闭症、学习障碍等）提供新的神经心理学测试。本研究成果报告共分八章。第一章阐述了本研究的目的和意义。第二章阐述了测试的框架和内容。测试内容如下：1. 唤醒水平和注意力测试（接受性和表达性注意力）。2. 同时和连续处理的测试。同时加工测试由图形复制、图形记忆、托肯测验和雷文矩阵组成，连续加工测试由听觉记忆广度和视觉短期记忆广度组成。3. 计划测试（威斯康星卡片分类测试和喜剧解释）。在第三章中，这些测试在4到14岁的正常受试者中进行，并进行了分析。第四章对6名自闭症被试进行了测试，并进行了分析。第五章对六名学习障碍被试进行了测试，并进行了分析。第六章对三名智力发育迟滞者进行了测试，并进行了分析。在第七章中，对其他四个发育障碍（阿斯伯格、兰多-克莱夫纳、威廉姆斯和多动症）的受试者进行了测试，并进行了分析。第八章对3例额叶病变患者进行了测试，并进行了分析。

The aim of this research is to make new neuropsychological tests for children with developmental disabilities (mental retardation, autism, learning disabilities, etc.). This report of research results is composed of eight chapters. In chapter one, the aim and significance of this research were described. In chapter two, the frame and contents of the tests were described. The contents of the tests are as follows. 1. Tests of arousal level and attention (receptive and expressive attention). 2. Tests of simultaneous and successive processing. The tests of simultaneous processing are composed of figure copying, figure memory, Token's test, and Raven's Matrices, That of successive processing is composed of auditory memory span and visual short-term memory span tasks. 3. Tests of planning (Wisconsin card sorting test and comic explanation). In chapter three, these tests were carried out in normal subjects ranging from four to fourteen years old, and analyzed. In chapter four, the tests were carried out in six autistic subjects, and analyzed. In chapter five, the tests were carried out in six subjects with learning disabilities, and analyzed. In chapter six, the tests were carried out in three subjects with mental retardation, and analyzed. In chapter seven, the tests were carried out in four subjects with other developmental disabilities (Asperger, Randau-Kleffner, Williams, and Attention-deficit disorder with hyperactivity syndromes), and analyzed. In chapter eight, the tests were carried out in three subjects with frontal lobe lesion, and analyzed.
