WAIS-R Profile Analysis for College Students with Learning Disabilities.

Maller, Susan J.; McDermott, Paul A.

School Psychology Review, v26 n4 p575-85 1997

Examines WAIS-R profiles of 194 college students diagnosed with learning disabilities (LD) to assess where they yield unique and interpretable profiles. Results show nearly 94% match profiles found in the WASI-R standardization sample. Also, shapes fail to explain a significant proportion of variation in student academic skills. (Author/JDM)
