[Paediatrics--child-psychiatry--"heilpädagogik" (author's transl)]

"Heilpädagogik" is of greater importance in Austria than in other countries: it includes the medical assessment of cerebral and functional disturbances of child behavior but also the mainly pedagogic therapy of the disturbances. In Austria the majority of doctors working in this field are originally paediatricians. A confrontation with child-psychiatry, a mutual exchange of experiences, a comparison of the working methods is aimed at.
