Ferretti, Ralph P. – Intelligence, 1982
Normal and retarded adolescents recalled consonants after 0, 9, and 27 seconds of tonal detection and performed the detection task without recall. Subjects were classified as rehearsers or nonrehearsers, depending upon variations in tonal detection accuracy or response times across conditions. Normal and retarded nonrehearsers showed equal…

Hiltonsmith, Robert W.; And Others – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1982
Investigated the utility of the Revised Beta as a screening device for low-functioning minority-group criminal offenders. Mean scores for this sample were correlated only mildly. This finding contradicts prior research and creates the need for caution in using the Beta as a screening device with this population. (Author)

Elkind, David – Intelligence, 1981
The question of how to integrate developmental (Piagetian) and psychometric conceptions and assessments of intelligence is considered. A solution which incorporates the contributions of each position--intelligence as forms and as traits--is offered. Premises and objectives of each tradition are reviewed and compared. Overlaps make synthesis…

Bloom, Allan S.; Raskin, Larry M. – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1980
Compared the WISC-R Verbal-Performance IQ discrepancies of learning-disabled children and of the normative sample. It was concluded that without clinical evidence to suggest otherwise, it cannot be assumed automatically that a child's discrepancy score, unless of extreme magnitude, is related to the learning disability itself.

All children have intelligence in varying degrees in various abilities; Structure of Intellect (SOI) Institute tests diagnose those abilities successfully in gifted, deaf, retarded, aphasic and all ethnic groups.

Davies, Deborah; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1981
Educable mentally retarded (EMR) and nonretarded (NR) adolescents verified superordinate and basic level descriptions of common objects. Results suggest that EMR subjects had difficulty making semantic classification decisions in general. Other results suggest that group differences in semantic processing speed were related to the deliberate…

Davidson, Philip W.; And Others – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1980
The results showed that accuracy depended on both stimulus complexity, modality, and mental age, regardless of whether or not the Ss were retarded. The selection of haptic search styles also depended on these factors but, in addition, was influenced by the intellectual status of the children. (Author/DLS)

Scarr, Sandra; Weinberg, Richard A. – American Sociological Review, 1978
Findings from a study reported in this paper indicate that the differences in family background that affect IQ are largely the result of genetic differences among parents, which affect the parents' own status attainment and which are passed on genetically to their offspring, whose status attainments are subsequently affected. (Author/EB)

Harker, R. K. – New Zealand Journal of Educational Studies, 1978
A study of two separate models which implicitly explain the underachievement of Maori pupils indicates that there is a generalized (or generalizing) factor affecting the performance of Maori children as a whole despite environmental differences. These environmental differences have a relatively strong effect on Pakeha children. (Author/EB)

Cupertino, Christina Menna Barreto – Gifted Education International, 1996
This paper discusses problems arising from prevailing definitions of intelligence that are based on a rational paradigm, the typical form of acquiring knowledge in the modern world. Argues that perceptions of "being intelligent" are formed by the requirements of traditional scientific method. Suggestions are outlined for understanding…

Stanley, Julian C. – Journal of Creative Behavior, 1997
Discusses the different characteristics that are often lumped together under the multidimensional term "giftedness."

Cho, Seokhee; Ahn, Doehee – Exceptional Children, 2003
A study trained 10 5-year-old typical children, 11 5-year-old gifted children, and 11 7-year-old typical children on strategy use. Several differences among groups were found, generally favoring the gifted children in terms of performance and maintenance of strategies. In addition, the gifted children seemed to use categorization strategies…
