Once Is Not Enough

Abstract

Bannatyne (1968, 1971, 1974) has proposed recategorizing Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) subtest scores into three subgroups. His findings have fostered research in an attempt to determine a unique profile attributable to learning disabled children. The present investigation used two samples of LD children (N = 208) and showed five subgroups of LD children within Bannatyne's recategorization paradigm. The implications of this investigation would suggest that potential intragroup variation within an LD population could be masked in the attempt to discern a more homogeneous single diagnostic profile. Recognition of this intragroup wariation could greatly enhance the use of diagnostic instruments in development remediation programs.
