“…Consistent with lvanova's (1953) and Drewe's (1975) descriptions of FL patients, hyperactives responded slgnificantly more often than control children ta non-s (lino go") words. This difficulty also resembles the motor inhibition difficulties of 6 year old children on the GNG tasks described by 1 f 17 stimulus sequence (e.g., "push wh en you see an X followed by an Ali) and to withhold responses to any other stimuli Ce.g., an X not followed by an A).…”

“…In fact, the association may be closer ta the arbitrary right/red-left/blue type of association. Although Kendler (1972) identified difficulties learning a right-left task in 5-1/2 year old children, Drewe (1975) did not find significant impairments for FL patients on this type of task.…”

“…First, perceptual disparity of signal and response was not as clear in Passler et al's (1985) verbal conflict task as it was in their nonverbal conflict task or in Drewe's (1975) ICD task. The ICD task requires direct inhibition of echopraxic responding, as both stimulus and response modes are visual.…”

“…Brain-damaged pat1ents without FL damage did not show these difficulties. Drewe (1975) also administered go-no go (GNG) and right-left tests to patients with circumscribed brain damage followlng surgery. In the GNG test, subjects were instructed to push a response key when a red light flashed and to refrain from pressing wh en a blue Iight flashed.…”

“…Lezak In contrast~ the speech of FL patients fails to exert a controlling influence over their actions (Luria, 1973 Drewe's (1975) findings suggest that simple motor performance (CCD) seems ta be "energized" (Le., made more impulsive) by concurrent verbalizations.…”

The usefulness of trontal lobe (FL) dysfunction as a conceptual model for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) was investigated.Twenty-four ADHD and 24 normal control (Ne) children were tested using tasks sensitive to FL deficits in motor control and problem solving skills and memory tasks sensitive to temporal lobe (TL) Venis Raymond for translatlng the abstract into French, and ta the many triends and colleagues who kept me going. l especially thank Ur.

Luria's tapping test (tap once when E taps twice, tap twice when E taps once) was administered to 160 children (80 males, 80 females) between 31/2 to 7 years old. Older children were faster and more accurate than younger children, with most of the improvement occurring by the age of 6. All children tested demonstrated understanding of the instructions during the pretest, and most started out performing well, but younger subjects could not sustain this. Over the 16 trials, percentage of correct responses decreased, especially among younger subjects. Performance here was compared with performance on the day‐night Stroop‐like task. The most common error on both tasks was to comply with only one of the two rules. Other errors included tapping many times regardless of what the experimenter did and doing the same thing as the experimenter, rather than the opposite. It is suggested that the tapping task requires both the ability to hold two rules in mind and the ability to inhibit a strong response tendency, that these abilities improve between 3–6 years of age, and that this improvement may reflect important changes within frontal cortex during this period of life. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
