Abstract
Thirty percent of waking electroencephalograms in childrens exhibiting hyperkinetic behavior disorders without other evidence of central nervous system disease are clearly abnormal. Another 60% of tracings show mild disorder which might be considered abnormal by some electro-encephalographers. Fifty percent of waking electroencephalograms in children exhibiting hyperkinetic behavior and evidence of other central nervous system disease are clearly abnormal. A further 40% of tracing show mild dysrhythmias. The incidences of paroxysmal, slow, and focal abnormalities in both groups are contrasted.
