[The behavior of pupils suffering from epilepsy].

From a total of 292 schoolchildren convalescing from neuroinfections observed for over 5 years, 42 had epilepsy. Different types of behavioral changes were detected. Psychomotor excitement and psychic depression were among the most frequent ones. Behavior changes were more pronounced in children studying in special aid school. Bringing up these children in an appropriate way is a matter of individual approach and joint efforts of parents, teachers and medical personnel to monitor and correct the patients' behavior.
