Neuropsychological significance of IQ summary scores.
A canonical correlation between summary intelligence scores and neuropsychological tests for 423 learning-disabled children was performed. Results showed a significant relationship between WISC-R global intelligence scores and tests of the Halstead-Reitan's Neuropsychological Battery for Older Children (HRNB-C), Rc = .53, p < .001. While measures were found to share commonality, both were found to provide unique information. The clinical implications of these findings were discussed.
