Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and autistic features: EEG evidence for comorbid disorders
2011, Psychiatry ResearchCitation Excerpt :The most marked differences were found in increased slow wave activity in the parietal regions, which indicated that the EEG of those children with comorbid AD/HD and LD reflected abnormalities associated with both disorders. In contrast to children with LD, children with conduct or oppositional defiant disorder (CD/ODD) typically do not have abnormal EEGs (Wiener et al., 1966; Swinton et al., 1977; Hsu et al., 1985; Phillips et al., 1993), which has been interpreted as indicating that the disorder is associated primarily with environmental/social factors (Satterfield and Schell, 1984). Clarke et al. (2002a) compared two groups of children with AD/HD, with and without comorbid ODD.
EEG coherence in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder and comorbid oppositional defiant disorder
2007, Clinical NeurophysiologyCitation Excerpt :EEG studies of behaviourally-disordered children have used a number of different categories. These have included delinquency (Wiener et al., 1966; Swinton et al., 1977; Hsu et al., 1985) as well as children diagnosed as having a CD (Phillips et al., 1993). Most studies have failed to find significant EEG differences between their behaviourally-disordered groups and non-delinquent control subjects, but Baving et al. (2000) reported that the normal alpha asymmetry in the frontal regions was not present in boys with ODD.
