Identifying vestibular procession dysfunction in learning-disabled children.
The purpose of this investigation was to identify neurobehavioral functions of the vestibulo-proprioceptive system that would aid the clinician in evaluating vestibular processing dysfunction in learntibulo-proprioceptive function were subjected to multiple regression analysis. Data analysis revealed that four variables shared significant variance with Southern California Postrotary Nystagmus Test scores. It is suggested that these variables can provide additional information in evaluating vestibular processing dysfunction in learning-disabled children.
