title: An attempt to determine the intellectual strengths and weaknesses of EMR children.
abstract: The performance of 101 educable mentally retarded (EMR) children on four annual administrations of the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale was analyzed using Sattler's standard deviation method and his Binetgram. Few of the children showed strengths and weaknesses until the original criteria were relaxed, and even then there was little stability over time. The findings suggest that this approach holds little promise for interpreting the Stanford-Binet performance of EMR children.
