摘要:Anemia is common and severe problem in adolescent girls in many developing countries including India. Decreased hemoglobin levels may lead to decreased attentiveness and low neuronal metabolic activity. The main aim of this study was to observe and compare the effects of hemoglobin level on auditory and visual reaction time in normal and anemic girls of same age group. Method: Adolescent girls of age group 17-19 years have been selected. Hemoglobin estimation was done using Sahali’s Hemoglobinometer. After haemoglobin estimation two groups were made. Group I (n=30) with estimated haemoglobin concentration ≥12 gm%. Group II (n=30) with estimatedhaemoglobin concentration
