The cognitive sphere was studied in schoolchildren with good study progress by using computer test systems. This provided age-dependent standards of major cognitive functions: perception, attention, memory, psychomotor activity, and thinking that determine the quality of cognitive activity. Comparatively, this may objectify age-specific prognosis of schoolchildren and specify causes of learning difficulties in children.

Intensive maturation of arbitrary attention occurs in the making of higher mental functions in children in transition to schooling. The study has yielded standard indices of changes in some higher mental functions at the age of 6-8 years, which makes it possible to make a timely objective diagnosis in mental and neurological practice to predict the child's development, and to provide a required complex of medical and pedagogical corrective measures.
