Thirty-four children (6 to 7 and 10 to 11 years old) diagnosed as brain injured and enrolled in a school for brain injured children and 40 children in regular classes took part in a study of variability and instability in perceptual and reading functions. (Author/SBH)

The study explored the intellectual functioning of 90 hyperkinetic, minimally brain damaged boys (mean age 12 years) via an analysis of student test performance in relation to the factor composition of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). (SBH)

It was concluded that computed axial tomography of the brain is not a necessary screening procedure in the evaluation of the child with minimal brain dysfunction or learning disabilities unless there is evidence of a focal neurologic deficit. (Author)

The study was designed to determine not only the comparability of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) and the WISC-Revised (WISC-R) with 40 minimal brain dysfunction children (6-10 years old), but also to determine whether well-established, clinically useful configurations emerge in the WISC-R as they do in the WISC.
