Attention and the EEG Alpha Rhythm in Learning Disabled Children

Fuller, Peter W.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, 11, 5, 303-12, May 78

Parieto-occipital electroencephalograms were recorded during resting baseline intervals, during an initial instruction period, and during active performance on mental arithmetic and immediate recall tasks to determine if 10 learning disabled boys (10-12 years old) would show less alpha attenuation than 11 normal controls.
