Further, ANOVA demonstrated that the verbal fluency measure was clinically useful in differentiating the Language Disorder/Dysphonetic Dyslexic subgroup from the Visual-Spatial/Dyseidetic dyslexic subgroup and the ADHD group, both of which tended to perform within the average range.

Capacity of Children With Non-Verbal Learning Disability (NLD) to Organize Higher Order Language as a Function of Response Modality. This study examines the capacity of NLD children to organize and formulate higher order language by constructing a story about a picture from the Test of Written Language-II as a function of output medium: handwritten versus computer generated. Twenty-five 9-14- year-old boys and girls with NLD (serial admissions to an outpatient pediatric neurological clinic) were given, in counterbalanced order of presentation, the TOWL-2 in written form by a neuropsychologist and on a computer by a speech-language therapist. NLD was diag- nosed by (a) VIQ higher than PIQ on the WISC-III, and (b) Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test performance poorly integrated and organized. Overall scores on the TOWL-2 for word processed scores were higher (p < .05) than for handwritten stories, and tended to be higher for specific organizational components as well. Average scores did not differ for the chil- dren with more frontal-associated findings compared to those with more posterior-associat- ed higher cortical findings. Combs, D. R., Livingston, R. B., & Ford, K. L. Cluster Analysis of Wechsler Factor Scores: Learning Disabled Students. To derive subtypes of Learning Disabled (LD) students, a cluster analysis was performed on Wechsler Factor Scores: Verbal Comprehension (VC), Perceptual Organization (PC), and Freedom From Distractibility (FFD), in a sample of 203 LD students (6-16 years). Cluster 1 was characterized by relatively good performance on the PO factor and relatively poor per- formance on the FFD factor. Cluster 2 was characterized by fairly even performance on the three factor scores. Cluster 3 reflected relatively good performance on the VC factor and poor performance on the FFD factor. Cluster 4 was characterized by relatively good perfor- mance on the VC factor and poor performance on the PO factor. Subsequent Profile Analysis of achievement scores revealed that the four groups were parallel (i.e., similar in pattern), but not coincident (i.e., similar in level). Cluster 4 subjects displayed the best per- formance on the achievement tests while Cluster 1 subjects demonstrated the lowest level of achievement. These results suggest that the VC and FFD factors were primary in determin- ing achievement scores (i.e., Basic Reading, Math Calculations, and Spelling). Surprisingly, the PO factor had the lowest correlation with all the achievement scores. Results are dis- cussed in terms of remediation of learning disabilities. Connell, B.

Multiple psychosocial measures might distinguish patients with intractable epilepsy from those with pseudoseizures better than a singl~ measure. Patients with intractable spells were admitted to an in-patient epilepsy monitoring unit. All patients received the same clinical interview, EEG/video monitoring, and two standardized assessments of quality of life (Quality of Life Inventory [QOLI], Quality of Life in Epilepsy, Research Edition [QOLIE- 89]) before being diagnosed with intractable epilepsy (ESZ n = 14) or pseudoseizures (PSZ
