Abstract
Children diagnosed as infantile hemiplegias were classified into groups by side of motor deficit. Each S was administered the WISC and the reading section of the WRAT. No relation was found between side of deficit and Verbal Performance difference scores. In each group WISC PIQ was lower than WISC VIQ. There was no significant difference in reading achievement. Relationships between intelligence test pattern and side of deficit reported for brain-injured adults do not appear to hold for children.Keywords
