title: IQ, mental age, complexity, and trial blocks and the response latency of retarded and nonretarded children.
abstract: The relationship between MA, IQ, complexity, and trial blocks on the processing performance of nonretarded and retarded children was examined. The main effect of trial blocks and an interaction between MA and Complexity were found to be significant. These results supported the conclusion that MA and not IQ is important for information processing.
