Abstract

The measures of children´s and adolescents´ cognitive performance in the Czech Republic have been so far assessed mainly by intelligence tests, such as the Wechsler Intelligence Scale (WISC-III) or the Intelligence and Developmental Scale for Children (IDS). However, there have been growing requirements for more accurate examination of individual cognitive profile for which the neuropsychological tests are not available. So far, in the pediatric population, we can only examine more thoroughly some of the cognitive functions, such as memory. For many other tests, normative data are available for the Czech population only in a narrow age range.
