Learning-Disabled Children Do Not Have a Perceptual Organization Deficit: Comments on Dean's WISC-R Analysis and a Reply to Sattler.

Sattler, Jerome M.; Dean, Raymond S.

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, v48 n2 p254-57 Apr 1980

Dean refutes this criticism showing that learning disabled children have a perceptual organization deficit when compared with emotionally disturbed children. (Author/BEF)
