[Cognitive organization in the motor pathology].
The aim of this paper is to describe intellectual performances in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy and with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Three different forms of cognitive analysis are proposed: a quantitative analysis with the Wechsler scales; a qualitative analysis of reasoning in different levels of development, in a piagetian framework; an analysis of learning processes and school performances.
