Abstract

The influence of tonic reflex activities on the slow auditory evoked potential (AEP) as well as the influence of Bobath's reflex inhibiting patterns (r.i.p.) in a group of 14 cerebral palsied children is compared under the same conditions with simulated tonic reflex patterns in 18 adult normal volunteers and 15 cerebral palsied children. In the adult volunteers group the effect of a relaxed symmetrical position of neck, trunk, and extremities in supine on the AEP is also evaluated. There are none but age specific differences in the latence of AEP between both groups but clear cut differences in the amplitudes and in the specific effect of r.i.p. in both groups.
