Cluster Score Performance of Learning Disabled Students on the Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery.

Walsh, Patricia C.; And Others

Psychology in the Schools, v26 n1 p19-27 Jan 1989

Examined ability of Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery (WJPEB) to identify learning-disabled (LD) students. Administered WJPEB to 71 previously identified LD students and evaluated cluster score performance. Used three methods of obtaining discrepancies; slightly more than one-half of LD students were identified. Memory deficits were apparent. Findings support cautious use of WJPEB in LD diagnosis.
