Abstract

The informative value of comprehensive psychophysiological examinations of children and adolescents who suffered from varying intellectual performance impairments was defined by using the testing computer systems "Rhythmotest", "Mnemotest", "Binatest" which may qualitatively scan cognitive and psychomotor activities in a child. Examinations are listed. The paper gives the indices showing the most significant differences between ill and healthy examinees, which may be the key points in detecting intellectual defect in a patient.
