Peer reviewedVance, Hubert Booney; And Others – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1980
Results indicated that males obtained higher scores on the verbal subtests. Females scored significantly higher on coding than did their counterparts. The verbal v performance IQ dichotomy did not appear as useful evidence in the diagnosis of learning disabilities. (Author)

Peer reviewedBishop, Dorothy; Butterworth, G. E. – British Journal of Educational Psychology, 1979
An unselected sample of rural English children completed the WPPSI at age 4 1/2 and the WISC-R four years later. Correlations were examined, as were relationships of subjects' subtest scores to Wechsler's norms. Characteristics of children not cooperating in the follow-up were considered. (SJL)

Peer reviewedReynolds, Cecil R.; Gutkin, Terry B. – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1980
The apparent stability of the three-factor solution across sex and age supports the interpretation that Wechsler Intelligence Scale For Children-Revised (WISC-R) factor scores are independent of child's sex and age. Construct validity is documented across numerous demographic variables. (Author)

Peer reviewedMiele, Frank – Intelligence, 1979
This study examines cultural bias in the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. Results indicated no evidence of specific factors peculiar to Blacks v Whites, and rank order of item difficulties was similar in both groups. Race differences were due to differences in mental maturity rather than to test bias. (Author/RD)
