Developmental equations reflect brain dysfunctions

H Ahn, L Prichep, ER John, H Baird, M Trepetin, and H Kaye

Developmental equations, which predict 32 parameters of the electroencephalogram recorded from the healthy human as a function of age, were tested in diverse groups of children. Few significant deviations were found in normal children, even in a culture different from the one on which the equations were based. A high incidence of significant deviations was found in children with learning disabilities and those at risk for various neurological disorders.
