The Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) factors of the Woodcock-Johnson Arabic Tests were studied with a group of children with dyslexia (n = 37), children with Intellectual Disability (ID) (n = 37), and average children (n = 37). A total sample of 111 Jordanian children with mean age of 116 months participated in the study. The purpose of this study was twofold: to contribute to the research examining the CHC broad cognitive abilities associated with children with mild disabilities, and to specifically shed light on the cognitive ability patterns that presumably contribute to dyslexia or ID. The findings revealed significant differences among the three groups of this study (Dyslexia, ID, and average children) on all cognitive measures, and in terms of their general intelligence. These differences were in favour of average children then children with dyslexia, and the worst performances were documented for children with ID. Interestingly, children with dyslexia/ID showed relative strengths in visual processing. Implications of the findings are also discussed.
