After signing the informed consent, parents of epileptic CHILDREN completed Persian version of CSI 4 Test for evaluation of ADHD symptoms in CHILDREN. The data were transferred to the designed sheets and analyzed by SPSS 19 software.Results: Mean age of participants was 7. 47 (SD=0.94) in epileptic patients and 6.39 (SD=2.41) in normal CHILDREN. There was a significant difference between the two groups in INATTENTION (p = 0.0001) and HYPERACTIVITY-impulsivity (p = 0.024 (scales.Conclusion: The present study showed that INATTENTION, HYPERACTIVITY and impulsivity symptoms were common in Iranian epileptic CHILDREN.
