Ferretti, Ralph P.; Butterfield, Earl C. – American Journal on Mental Retardation, 1989
The study compared the problem solving strategies of intellectually gifted (N=133), average (N=102) and mentally retarded (N=51) children on two-dimensional integration problems. Gifted children tended to integrate dimensional information by addition, average children used lexicographic strategies, and retarded children relied on a single…

The Relationship between Intelligence and Achievement: A Reconsideration Based on Restricted Groups.

Algozzine, Bob; And Others – Journal for Special Educators, 1980
The percentage of variance in achievement accounted for by IQ greatly decreased as the subgroups became more removed from the mean IQ for the sample. Results suggest that definition and placement decisions based on IQ be reconsidered for populations whose mean IQ is substantially above or below the average IQ. (DB)

Hendon, Donald W.; And Others – 1974
To learn if differences in age, intelligence, and sex account for differences in children's memory of TV commercials and "degree of insistence" (DI) after viewing them, 54 gifted, 71 normal, and 53 educable mentally retarded children (of both sexes, 7-13 years) were questioned. The mediating influence of the three independent variables on DI was…

McCallum, R. Steve – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1981
This study explored the influence of intelligence on the direction of conjugate lateral eye movements during problem solving. The gifted, average, and retarded 13-year-olds tested did not differ. Thus, the premise that intelligence differences influence problem-solving style (as indicated by conjugate lateral eye movements) was not supported.…

Blake, Kathryn A.; Williams, Charlotte L. – 1968
Knowledge of English morphology was studied in intellectually retarded (IQ 50 to 80), normal (IQ 90 to 110), and superior (IQ 120+) children at four chronological age (CA) levels from 4 to 12. The task involved using inflectional and derivational suffixes at two levels of generality: producing inflected and derived forms of English words, and…

Williams, Charlotte L.; Tillman, M. H. – 1968
The effects of age and intelligence levels upon word associations were studied in 96 intellectually retarded, normal, and superior children with IQ's of 65 to 80, 91 to 110, and 117 to 158 respectively. A word association and a word usage task (reliability coefficients of .91 and .98) called for homogeneous responses to six form classes--count…
