Abstract

Connections between visual imagination and verbal presentation was studied in normal conditions and in organic and functional impairment of mental activity in children and adults. Criteria for the analysis of visual imagination were designed. The significance of various forms of its disturbances for the differential neuropsychological diagnosis of organic and psychogenic diseases as well as for revealing the social disadaptation of adolescents was demonstrated.
