This study investigated age-related electrophysiological differences between children diagnosed with Learning Disabilities (LD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), LD-ADHD and Conduct Disorder, using Event-Related Potentials recorded during a two-tone discrimination test. Although age-related (N1 and N2 amplitude), as well as diagnostic group-related (P3 latency and amplitude) ERP changes were found, there was no significant interaction between the diagnostic groups and age grouping. We conclude that: 1) Electrophysiological abnormalities in LD and ADHD do not significantly change with age during childhood. This study does not, therefore, support a hypothesis of age-related brain abnormalities in LD and ADHD. 2) Significant group differences for P3 latency and amplitude were found between normal children and the LD groups (LD and LD-ADHD), but not between normal children and those with ADHD alone, suggesting that main correlates of P3 abnormalities in these children are "processing" and not attentional problems.
