CLINICAL AND NEUROLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF TIC HYPERKINESIS IN CHILDREN

Abstract

The article presents examination data of 70 children with tic hyperkinesis. Tic hyperkinesis affects the cognitive and emotional spheres, and these changes are most pronounced with common tics. Based on the Toulouse-Pieron test, which characterizes the ability to voluntarily concentrate attention, it has been proven that children with local tics have a significantly higher concentration of attention compared to common ones.
