    Journal: Epileptic Disord; 2001; 3 Spec No 2():SI51-8. PubMed ID: 11827847.
    Abstract:
    Children with epilepsy are exposed to learning disabilities. In young children, still not taught reading, spelling or mathematics, the standardized psychometric evaluation provides a usefull assessment tool enabling identification of the structural disturbances that will affect the learning process. For school-age children, assessment can be made in regard to the DSM IV criteria of specific learning disabilities, and within a neuropsychological framework that pays a particular attention to the executive functions.
