Abstract
Examined the WISC-R profiles of learning-disabled children from the Papago culture. A sample of 46 Papagos diagnosed as learning disabled were used in the study. Recategorized scores were subjected to 1 × 3 repeated measures ANOVA, and the differences between mean categorized scores were analyzed by Newman-Keuls tests for simple effects. Analysis of the obtained data suggested that learning-disabled Papago children were not characterized by Spatial > Conceptual > Sequential pattern because WISC-R performance of these children was found to be similar on Sequential and Spatial categories. Caution in the use of WISC-R profile for differential diagnosis was recommended.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
