Abstract
174 patients diagnosed with intractable epilepsy completed a pre-surgical neuropsychological assessment (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Fifth Edition and the parent-reported Behavior Assessment System for Children – Second Edition). Adaptive scores were associated with decreases in Internalizing, Externalizing, and Behavioral Symptom Scores and Similarities were associated with Externalizing Symptoms.
