Alfred Strauss, along
with his colleagues Laura Lehtinen and Newell Kephart, created the diagnostic
category of minimal brain damage in children. He presumed that children with
learning difficulties, who were not mentally retarded, hearing impaired, or
emotionally disturbed, had minimal brain damage. He developed a number of
qualitative diagnostic measures of brain injury in children. The syndrome of
behaviors associated with minimally brain damaged children which Strauss
differentiated from familial mental retardation, came to be called by some
"Strauss Syndrome." Strauss was the founder and director of Cove
School in Racine Wisconsin, a residential school for brain-injured children,
and the Evanston day unit for these children in Evanston, Illinois.
