Abstract:
With the child behavioral questionnaire developed by Rutter,39 Chinesechildren(group 1-C),27 Japanese children(group 1-J)and 87 South Korean children(group1-S)were identfied as with behavioral problems,together with matched norman children of27 from China(group 2-C),30 from Japan(group 2-J)and 26 from South Korea(group 2-S)respectively,to engage in this EEG study.In a comparison between behavioral problemschildren and normal ones in each country no significant difference was found in EEG data.However,in the comparison among group 1s,group 2s and ADD-H children(group 3s:41from China as group 3-C,21 from Japan as group 3-J and,29 from South Korea as group3-S)diagnosed clinically with DSM-Ⅲ,significant difference among groups was found inEEG analyses in each country respectively.Some index of slow wave of group 3s'EEG weremuch higher than that of normal ones(group 2s).EEG data from group 3-C and gruop 3-Jshowed that the frequency-peak moved to slow frequency area.This indicates the develop-ment of ADD-H may associate with some functional abnormalities of nervious system.
