Neuropsychological reference groups for 9- through 14-year-old subjects with identified learning disabilities.
The neuropsychological reference groups reported in this study are based on a sample of 1,325 learning-disabled subjects aged 9 through 14 drawn from a midsize midwestern metropolitan community. The sample was composed of 1,006 males and 319 females. Separate means and standard deviations, reported for each gender and age group, were generated for 31 measures ordinarily included as part of the Halstead Neuropsychological Test Battery for Children. Several comparisons were made with other norms previously reported. The need for additional neuropsychological reference groups for children is discussed.
