| Sumario: | A psychological and pedagogic study was made of a group of children between the ages of 7 and 12 years in whom the only abnormal feature in the case history was neonatal cerebral effects. There were no obvious neurological sequelae, adverse effects from the family environment, or any general retardation. Many different anomalies of function were observed, which caused learning problems in three specific areas: inadequacy of attention, inadequacy of motor control and inadequacy of emotional and thymic control. These were manifested in difficulties in the integration of inner experiences and problems in the development of a stable personality and cognitive and affective structures, despite the normality of the family environment.
