[Psychopathologic analysis of mild forms of mental deficiency]

The paper describes the results of studying cognitive activity in 174 school children with mild forms of intellectual insufficiency. On the basis of a psychopathological analysis 4 main types of intellectual insufficiency were distinguished: mildly expressed personality and cognitive activity retardation; borderline forms of intellectual insufficiency; intellectual insufficiency due to functional disorders of brain activity (mental retardation) and familial-pedagogical neglect.
