This paper concerned developmental perspectives of the Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome. Topics addressed included birth, developmental and family histories, and symptom picture. The neglected area of academic achievement was examined. Results of the first systematic investigation of neuro-psychological functioning of Tourette children undertaken in the United States was presented. Subjects were 13 diagnosed male Tourette patients between 10 and 13 yr. of age. Parents completed the Developmental History and Tourette Syndrome Questionnaires while subjects were administered the WISC-R, Wide Range Achievement Test, Bender-Gestalt, and Halstead Neuropsychological Test Battery for Children. There was no supporting evidence that pre-/postnatal trauma was significant in the etiology of the disorder. Again, evidence suggested a genetic component. Finally, academic difficulties appear related to the visuographic dysfunction noted on neuropsychological assessment.
本文关注抽动秽语综合征的发展前景。涉及的主题包括出生、发育和家族史以及症状表现。对被忽视的学业成绩领域进行了研究。介绍了在美国对抽动秽语症儿童神经心理功能进行的首次系统调查结果。受试者为13名年龄在10至13岁之间被诊断为抽动秽语症的男性患者。家长完成发育史和抽动秽语综合征问卷，同时让受试者接受韦氏儿童智力量表修订版、广泛成就测验、本德尔格式塔测验和儿童哈雷特神经心理测验组。没有支持证据表明产前/产后创伤在该疾病的病因中具有重要意义。同样，有证据表明存在遗传因素。最后，学业困难似乎与神经心理评估中发现的视觉图形功能障碍有关。
