Demographic characteristics and mean profiles of Learning Disability Index subsets of the standardization sample of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised.

The Learning Disability Index (LDI) was validated by an examination of the mean profiles and demographic characteristics of high and low LDI subsets of the standardization sample of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised. The LDI continuum, however, was found to measure Third Factor strengths/weaknesses as much as verbal-performance discrepancies.
