Ability Profiles in Children with Autism: Influence of Age and IQ.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Mayes, Susan Dickerson; Calhoun, Susan L. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2003
Psychological data were analyzed for 164 individuals (ages 3-15) with autism (IQs 14-143). Verbal IQ lagged behind nonverbal during the preschool years, but by school age the gap had closed. For school-age children with low IQs, math, spelling, and writing scores were consistent with IQ and reading was above IQ. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
