[Clinical studies of learning disability. Part IV : A prospective study of children with risk factors for learning disability at three year-old screening--clinical examinations in 1995].
We are following children with risk factors for learning disability (LD) at three year-old screening prospectively. In 1995, one child reportedly as normal in 1994 was considered to have a possibility of LD. The complaints of their parents had shifted to underachievement. In several children, their poor social skill in school and family was considered to be more serious in 1995 than in 1994. All children who were clumsy in early childhood showed non-optimal motor co-ordination on minor neurological examinations by Touwen. This suggested that non-temporary neurological impairments led them to LD.
