Comparison of WISC and WISC-R Scores of Mentally Retarded and Gifted Children

Solly, David C.

Journal of School Psychology, 15, 3, 255-258, F 77

Although authors have varied opinions, it is the general concensus that the WISC-R is superior to the WISC. This author concurs. However, serious consideration should be given to the research findings before the WISC-R is substituted freely for the WISC as a criterion for special education placement. (Author)
