Objectives : This study was conducted to compare the memory function among the attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) , the learning disorder (LD) and the comorbidity disorder (ADHD+LD) groups.
Methods : Thirty-four children (11 ADHD, 5 LD, 9 ADHD+LD, and 8 Psychiatric control) were individually assessed using the KEDI-WISC and Memoty Assessment Scale (MAS), and then the results of those test were analyzed.
Results : In memory test, all of three group showed lower performances than control group. The comorbidity, the LD and the ADHD group showed lower scores in almost subtests of MAS respectively. The good performance in memory test was significantly correlated with the types of memory strategy and error response children used during testing.
Discussion : The clinical utility of the memory test like MAS was discussed in terms of differential diagnosis for ADHD, LD and ADHD+LD children.
