In the active phase of benign childhood epilepsy with centro-temporal spikes (BCECTS) there may be a fall in scholastic performance.
To study lexical decision in children with BCECTS.
42 children with BCECTS were compared with a control group with respect to their hits and response time in a visual discrimination of words and pseudowords task (DWPT).
The children with BCECTS had a lower percentage of hits for words and pseudowords and showed longer response times for pseudowords. They also frequently showed inferior reading and writing performance in the school performance test. The percentage of hits for pseudowords was lower when there was bilateral, asynchronous epileptiform activity.
The DWPT provided contributions for reading assessments in children with BCECTS. The results indicated the need for attention in detecting reading difficulties in children with BCECTS.
在儿童良性中央颞区棘波癫痫（BCECTS）的发作期，学业成绩可能会下降。
研究BCECTS患儿的词汇判断能力。
将42例BCECTS患儿与对照组在单词和伪词视觉辨别任务（DWPT）中的命中次数和反应时间进行比较。
BCECTS患儿对单词和伪词的命中次数百分比更低，对伪词的反应时间更长。他们在学校成绩测试中的读写表现也经常较差。当出现双侧、不同步的癫痫样活动时，伪词的命中次数百分比更低。
DWPT为BCECTS患儿的阅读评估提供了参考。结果表明需要关注BCECTS患儿阅读困难的检测。
