Spontaneous EEG Correlates of Intellectual Functioning in Talented and Handicapped Adolescents.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Fischer, Donald G.; And Others – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
EEG correlates of intellectual functioning in academically handicapped and talented adolescents were investigated. Data from Ertl's Brainwave Analyzer were factor analyzed and used to predict verbal, numerical, reasoning, and spatial abilities and reading and mathematics achievement. Correlational patterns differed by group. Implications for…

Comparison of the Goodenough-Harris Drawing Test and the WISC-R for Children Experiencing Academic Difficulties.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tramill, James L.; And Others – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
One hundred students (ages 6 to 17) identified as experiencing academic difficulties were administered both the Draw-A-Person and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) to assess the relationship between the two instruments with this population. Analyses indicated significant correlations between the various scores obtained…

Achievement As a Momentary Event, As a Continuing State, Locus of Control: A Clarification.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Sherman, Lawrence W.; Hofmann, Richard J. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
The locus of control/achievement relationship is clarified by distinguishing momentary achievement events (standardized test results) from a continuing state (grade point average) using a path diagram. Although no substantial correlations were found between locus of control, socioeconomic status and sex, these variables better predicted continuing…

Relationships between McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities and Teachers' Ratings of School Achievement.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Simons, Marc R.; Goh, David S. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Correlations between McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities and teachers' ratings of academic achievement were investigated. McCarthy Scales are useful in predicting achievement of normal children, but further research is needed with learning disabled students. Use of teachers' rating scales with low functioning children is discussed in light of…

Success in Architecture: Handedness and/or Visual Thinking.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Peterson, John M.; Lansky, Leonard M. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
Some data on sex and handedness in relation to academic predictors and success in architectural education were reexamined. The new variable was the notion of visual thinking, measured by the manner, "visually" or "cognitively," of executing a simple line drawing. As expected, significant differences appeared between persons using these modes.…

Validity of a Primary Screening Device as a Predictor of Subsequent Academic Achievement.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Dziuban, Charles D.; Mealor, David J. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Correlations among motor, visual, auditory, and language subscales of a primary device, Yellow Brick Road, with subsequent academic achievement on the Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills were moderate (.35 to .81). Comparisons of third-grade boys and girls on the screening device yielded little difference. Implications for educational screening…

Memory-for-Designs, Intelligence, and Achievement of Educable Mentally Retarded Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ong, Jin; Jones, Lowell, Jr. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Rank-difference correlations between Memory-for-Designs test, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), and Wide Range Achievement Test scores for two classes of educable mentally retarded children showed high negative correlations between Memory-for-Designs and WISC Full Scale IQs. Visual memory accounted for 84 percent of variance in…
