ResumoA controlled study was conducted on 25 patients diagnosed to be suffering from organic brain syndrome. Luria's Neuropsychological Investigation was administered to detect organicity and to determine its locus. The Bender Visual Motor Gestalt Test served as a control. Luria's test confirmed organicity in all of the proband population and in none of the controls. It also indicated probable locus of the lesion. Administration of Luria's test on a larger population with equivocal cases is suggested.
