学習障害児の実態に関する研究 (第2報): 3歳児健診における学習障害リスク児はどんな学童になったか

抄録

We followed children with the risk factors for learning disability (LD) at the three year-old screening prospectively. The five risk factors were speech delay, hyperkinesia, delayed social skill, delayed comparative conception (big and small, long and short) and mutistic behaviour. We evaluated seventeen elementary school children using WISC-R and the Pupil Rating Scale Revised. Six of them were diagnosed as normal, six were learning-disabled, and five were mentally retarded children. We proposed that the screening of LD at three years by the risk factors were effective but only partially.
