[Differential evaluation of a study of children with normal behavior with the Meyer-Probst Encephalopathy...

To define new standards for the 'Enzephalopathie-Fragebogen' by Meyer-Probst the authors tested a large number of children (n = 2841) without unadaptive or neurotic behaviour (4.5 to 11.9 years). The results of the total scale were published in an earlier article. The findings of the specific scales prove significant differences between boys and girls with respect to the scales hyperactivity, social adaption, emotional instability and educability. Considering the age, different standards are necessary for boys only. The results published here differ from those of Meyer-Probst.
