title: Intellectual development of children as measured by the wechsler intelligence scale, United States.
abstract: This report presents information on the distribution of the levels of intellectual development of children 6-11 years of age in the noninstitutional population of the United States as estimated from the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children test data obtained from the two subtests used in the Health Examination Survey of 1963-65-Vocabulary and Block Design. Consideration is limited to age and sex differentials only in the first of a series of reports on the test findings. The Health Examination Survey is one of the major programs organized within the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) to carry out the National Health Survey, authorized in 1956 by the 84th Congress as a continuing Public Health Service activity.
