Resing, Wilma C. M.; Tunteler, Erika – International Journal of Testing, 2007
In this article, time effects on intelligence test scores have been investigated. In particular, we examined whether the "Flynn effect" is manifest in children from the middle and higher IQ distribution range, measured with a child intelligence test based on information processing principles--the Leiden Diagnostic Test. The test was administered…

White, W. Glenn – Psychology in the Schools, 1979
This study provides guidelines for practitioners to determine the minimum differences, in scaled score points, needed for statistical significance when applying the Bannatyne recategorization of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Revised subtests on a individual basis. (Author)

Curran, Lisa; And Others – 1996
A major criticism of standardized intelligence tests is their improper use in measuring the intellectual competence of culturally diverse children. Factors which complicate the issue are the definition of intelligence, content bias in intelligence tests, and the interpretation of test scores between white middle class children and children of…

Gilger, J. W.; Geary, D. C. – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1985
Compared the performance of 56 children on the 11 subscales of the Luria-Nebraska Neuropsychological Battery-Children's Revision. Results revealed significant differences on Receptive Speech and Expressive Language subscales, suggesting a possible differential sensitivity of the children's Luria-Nebraska to verbal and nonverbal cognitive deficits.…

Groff, M.; Hubble, L. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1982
Factor analyzed Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised scores of low-IQ youths aged 9-11 and 14-16. Extracted Verbal Comprehension, Perceptual Organization and Freedom From Distractibility dimensions for each group. Coefficients of congruence indicated the two age groups were not similar on the Freedom From Distractibility factor.…

Dean, Raymond S. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1978
Determined if Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised subtest patterns would differentiate the performance of emotionally disturbed and learning-disabled children. Subtests differentiated significantly between diagnostic categories. Learning-disabled children performed predictively poorer on block design, picture arrangement, and object…

Gutkin, Terry B. – Psychology in the Schools, 1979
Investigated the measurement properties and practical utility of Bannatyne's recategorized WISC-R scores. Analyses of the scores of Caucasian learning disabled children indicated that, as a group, these students were characterized by the predicted Spatial-Conceptual-Sequential pattern. This was not found to be true for Mexican-American learning…

Slate, John R.; Jones, Craig H. – Diagnostique, 1997
WISC-III scores of 233 students (ages 9 to 13) with mental retardation were examined. Boys had higher Full Scale, Verbal, and Performance IQs than did girls. Boys also had higher scores on six of the 10 subtests. In addition, all of the statistically significant differences were in favor of boys. (Author/CR)

Meeker, Mary – Education, 1981
All children have intelligence in varying degrees in various abilities; Structure of Intellect (SOI) Institute tests diagnose those abilities successfully in gifted, deaf, retarded, aphasic and all ethnic groups. With a database of thousands of student test responses, materials are developed to prepare children for the future. (NEC)

TILLMAN, M.H. – 1967
USING A CROSS-SECTIONAL SAMPLING PLAN, THE STABILITY OF WECHSLER INTELLIGENCE SCALE FOR CHILDREN (WISC) PROFILES, MEAN SCALE SCORES ON THE FOLLOWING SUBTESTS--INFORMATION, COMPREHENSION, ARITHMETIC, SIMILARITIES, VOCABULARY, AND DIGIT SPAN WAS EXAMINED AS A FUNCTION OF SEX, AGE, AND ABILITY LEVEL. FROM 167 WISC FORMS (OF BLIND BOYS AND GIRLS AGED…

Goldstein, David; Myers, Barbara – Child Study Journal, 1980
The discrepancy between middle-class and lower-class children's performance on IQ tests has been thought of as "cognitive deficit" or as "cognitive differences." This paper proposes another explanation--cognitive lag hypothesis--according to which the low IQ test scores of lower-class children are seen as due to the developmentally delayed…

Quattrocchi, Mary; Sherrets, Steven – Psychology in the Schools, 1980
Although the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) involves modifications and a complete restandardization, the literature suggests that it remains very similar in nature to its predecessor, the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). Individuals perform on the WISC-R largely the same as they do on the WISC. (Author)

Molfese, Victoria J.; And Others – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly, 1997
Examined 128 children for contributions of biomedical risk conditions, SES, and HOME scores to prediction of intelligence, and association of extreme scores on HOME and SES to intelligence-test performance. Found home environment was the most important predictor of intelligence at all ages, with SES showing a smaller effect beginning at age 5.…
