Recategorized WISC-R Scores of Juvenile Delinquents.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Groff, Martin G.; Hubble, Larry M. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1981
Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised scores of a male delinquent sample were grouped by A. Bannatyne's classification of Wechsler's subtests, and these recategorized scores were compared with results of a previous study of learning disabled children. Findings failed to support a theory that learning disabled youth possess a unique…

Once Is Not Enough.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ryckman, David B.; Elrod, G. Franklin – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1983
Two samples of learning disabled (LD) children (a total of 208) were evaluated in order to reveal several subgroups of LD children within A. Bannatyne's recategorization paradigm. Five subgroups were shown with varied profiles. Recognition of this intragroup variation could greatly enhance the use of diagnostic instruments in developmental…

A Principal Components Analysis of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC): Implications for the Test Results of Children with Learning Disabilities.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Inglis, James; Lawson, J. S. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1986
A learning disability index (LDI) for the assessment of intellectual deficits on the K-ABC is described. The population parameters of this index allows for assessment of the abnormality of the LDI in the individual case, as well as for evaluation of statistical significance of any change in the LDI from test to retest.

Diagnostic Implications of Bannatyne's Recategorized WISC-R Scores for Identifying Learning Disabled Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Henry, Stephan A.; Wittman, Robert D. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1981
The study examined the use of A. Bannatyne's Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) subtest score recategorization hierarchy in identifying elementary students with learning disabilities (LD). The results indicated that Bannatyne's pattern was of little value in differentiating between LD students and nonLD students and, if…

Concerns in Interpreting Subtest Scatter on the Tests of Cognitive Ability from the Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marston, Doug; Ysseldyke, James – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1984
Scatter analysis among the Tests of Cognitive Ability for the Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery was conducted on the performance of 3,566 Ss (grades one to 12) from the standardization sample. Examining scatter on the Tests of Cognitive Ability and identifying specific "types" of learning disabilities using this test are discouraged.…

The Usefulness of the Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery Cognitive Cluster Scores for Learning Disabled College Students.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hoy, Cheri; Gregg, Noel – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1986
The Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery was administered to 41 learning disabled college students. A modified subtest profile was used to facilitate the examination of the pattern of subtest scores for the Cognitive Factor Cluster Scores. Results suggest examiners should carefully inspect subtest scores and not rely on cluster scores to…

External Validity of the Profile Variability Index for the K-ABC, Stanford-Binet, and WISC-R: Another Cul-de-Sac.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kline, Rex B.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1993
This study evaluated the external validity of a measure of IQ subtest variability, the profile variability index (PVI), with a sample of 146 children referred for psychological testing. Correlation of PVIs on each intelligence test with achievement scores and indexes of discrepancy between actual and predicted scholastic achievement found…
