Early auditory evoked responses were elicited from 35 neurologically normal children (17 males and 18 females), aged 6-18 years. Attention was paid to absolute latencies, standard deviations, interwave latencies, absolute amplitudes and amplitude ratio. Knowledge of these normal values in children, as a precondition for establishing criteria for abnormality, is essential to the interpretation of early auditory evoked potentials in clinical situations.
