Abstract

|
Objective：This study aims to investigate the cognitive characteristics of clinically referred children with symptoms of inattention, cach as having ADHD, tic disorder, and emotional disorder.
Methods：65 boys(38 with ADHD, 17 with Tic disorder, and 10 with Emotional disorder) were individually assessed using the KEDI-WISC(FIQ, VIQ, PIQ) and T.O.V.A.(errors of omission, errors of commission, reaction time, variability, anticipatory response, multiple response), and the results of those tests were analyzed.
Results：There was significant difference among three diagnostic groups of the VIQ of KEDIWISC and the reaction time of T.O.V.A. after the correction of the effect of age difference.
Conclusion：The findings suggest that the reaction time of T.O.V.A. might be the useful variable to differentiate the ADHD from other psychiatric disorders and the effect of age and IQ difference should be considered carefully to diagnose in clinical setting.
