Abstract
The participants in this study consisted of 239 children residing in four communities on the coast of Labrador-63 lnuit and 176 White subjects. The Level I and Level II intelligence measures were a series of digit span tests and Raven's progressive matrices, respectively. The results indicated some differences between the Inuit and White sample in Level I measures, decreasing with age, and a significant difference on the Level Il tests favoring the Inuit sample.Keywords
