Abstract: The article investigates the performance on the WISC-R of 98 learning disabled children and youth, who ranged in age from 6-3 to 13-6 to determine whether there were any significant subtest scale score differences psychology staff at a teaching hospital. Results indicated that males obtained higher scores on the six verbal subtests. Females scored significantly higher on coding than did their counterparts. In addition, the Verbal vs. Performance IQ dichotomy did not appear as useful evidence in the diagnosis of learning disabilities.
