  • Title: [Clinico-psychological study of deaf children and adolescents with residual organic syndromes and oligophrenia].
    Author: Saraev SIa.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1988; 88(7):119-24. PubMed ID: 3188765.
    Abstract:
    Standard methods were employed to study clinically and psychologically 70 deaf schoolchildren with psychic developmental defects. These techniques allowed assignment of the schoolchildren to different groups by mental and cognitive capacity. Comparative assessment of clinical and psychological findings contributed to differentiation of dysontogenetic variants: mental retardation, encephalopathic forms of borderline intellectual deficiency and oligophrenia. A specific pattern of cognitive functions in deaf children should be accounted for when making differential diagnosis of clinical forms of mental deficiency in congenital and early acquired deafness.
