Memory function of children with spina bifida and shunted hydrocephalus / Christine CULL in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-2 (April 1984)
[article]
Titre : Memory function of children with spina bifida and shunted hydrocephalus Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Christine CULL, Auteur ; Maria A. WYKE, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.177-183 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A group of 10 children with spina bifida and shunted hydrocephalus, aged between 7 1/2 and nine years, was tested for memory of two types of verbal material and two types of pictorial material. Their performance was compared with a group of children with matched IQ and with a group of average IQ, all matched for age and sex. The parameters investigated were learning ability; immediate and delayed recall, and also long-term recall/recognition; and reacquisition of material learned after a period of 24 hours. The hydrocephalic children and the matched IQ group were significantly poorer than the average IQ group on all tasks except for 'Memory for a Short Story' Comparisons between the hydrocephalic and matched IQ groups showed that the former group was significantly poorer only in a 'Memory for Words' test. It is suggested that this discrepancy in the performance of hydrocephalic children in learning unrelated, as opposed to connected, meaningful verbal material may reflect a deficit in their ability to use appropriate semantic strategies at the level of encoding.
