Abstract
The behavioral manifestations of neuropsychological impairment were examined in a sample of hospitalized boys with psychiatric disorders. The presence of neuropsychological deficits was found to be associated with more extensive behavior problems regardless of factors such as IQ, socioeconomic status, and whether there was a documented history of brain injury. However, the relationship applied specifically to younger as opposed to older subjects, and mainly involved internalizing rather than externalizing behavior problems. The results are taken to suggest that the behavioral manifestations of neuropsychological impairment may change with development.
