NEUROLOGICAL STATUS vs QNST STATUS IN 557 STUDENTS Patricia J. Sterling Harold M. Sterling The effectiveness of the Quick Neurological Screening Test (QNST) (Mutti et al. 1974, 1977) as a screening tool for sus- picion of medically significant neurological dysfunction, to be presented in this report, has been studied in two types of populations: 1. So-called undifferentiated subjects consisting of entire classes in a school or all children of a given age in a geographic area, regardless of school placement. 2. "Problem" subjects—individuals or groups known to have, or suspected of having, learning disorders. Estimates of the frequency of "neurological handicap'1 or "minimal cerebral dysfunction" range widely, from 2 percent to 35 percent or more, depending on the author's criteria and the population studied. (See References: all sources, Angle through Frankenburg.) In the interest of attempting to make observa- tions in an orderly, uniform fashion which could then be com- pared with other studies, we have used a general physical examin- ation form incorporating the neurologic assessment described Patricia J. Sterling, MEd, is an educational therapist in private practice. Harold M. Sterling, MD, is director of rehabilitation at Children's Hospital and Health Center, 8001 Frost Street, San Diego, California
