Comparison of quantitative electroencephalography between normal and children with anxiety disorder

ABSTRACT

Background and Objective: Anxiety disorder [AD] is one of the most common children disorders.In last two decades, several studies conducted to determine the mechanisms of child anxiety disorder specifically in base of neural mechanisms. However, studies about the electrophysiology of child anxiety disorder particularly in the quantitative electroencephalography [QEEG] are less than imaging studies. This study was performed to compare the quantitative EEG between children with anxiety disorder and normal subjects:
