Actuarial Assessment of Wechsler Verbal-Performance Scale Differences as Signs of Lateralized Cerebral Impairment.

Leli, Dano A.; Filskov, Susan B.

Perceptual and Motor Skills, v53 n2 p491-96 Oct 1981

The long-standing clinical lore which holds that a discrepancy between Wechsler-Bellevue Verbal-Performance Scale weighted scores is a more sensitive sign of lateralized brain damage than a discrepancy between Verbal-Performance Scale IQ is investigated. The results do not support the clinical lore. (Author/AL)
