Differential WAIS/WAIS-R IQ Discrepancies among Institutionalized Mentally Retarded Persons.
Goldman, Jeri J.
American Journal of Mental Deficiency, v91 n6 p633-35 May 1987
Scores on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) were compared with reevaluation scores obtained four years later on the WAIS-Revised for a group of 108 mildly and moderately retarded adults. The moderately retarded subgroups (N=22) demonstrated significantly higher WAIS-R intelligence quotients. Implications for use of the WAIS-R are discussed. (JW)
