Abstract
WISC-R correlations with Reading, Spelling, and Arithmetic achievement were compared for 145 males and 69 females referred by regular classroom teachers for school psychological services. Although correlations were smaller than are typically found due to restriction of range, no significant differences occurred across sex in the magnitudes of WISC-R/achievement correlations.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
