Abstract

This carefully written description of the neurological examination of children for the elucidation of minor neurologic dysfunction is timely. It is increasingly evident that the management of behavioral and academic disabilities in children with such dysfunction varies to some extent from that useful in children not so afflicted. The tardiness of this recognition is in large measure a function of lack of agreement as to methods of examination. Most neurologists working from such a background have developed a variety of "soft signs" which in their own minds arouse the suspicion of mild neurologic deficit in children, but which are still "soft" because they do not deviate sufficiently from the neurologic findings in adults to warrant certainty.
