“…Various investigators have found an incidence of abnormal EEGs ranging ,from 35 to 50 percent in hyperactive children and in mixed groups of hyperactive and behaviour problem children (Werry, Weiss and Douglas, 1964;Werry, Weiss, Dogan, Minde and Douglas, 1969;Stevens, Sachdev and Milstein, 1968). These studies have, however, differed with respect to the incidence of abnormal EEGs found in their normal control groups such that it is difficult to draw conclusions concerning the EEG status of hyperactive children relative to normal children.…”
