After a 10-week physical training program for 11 motorically handicapped Dutch children, aged eight to l4, the experimental group (N=6) demonstrated a significant increase in physical efficiency and classroom attention scores. Follow-up showed that both groups' physical efficiency scores deteriorated and that experimentals' attention scores deteriorated. (Author/MC)
