An Outside View of Neuropsychological Testing. Symposium No. 14: Response.
Samuels, S. Jay
Journal of Special Education, v13 n1 p57-60 Spr 1979
The author's response to H. Reed's paper (EC 115 148) on the nature of the relationship between biological defects and educational attitude and achievement refutes the relevance of biological knowledge to education, and contends the neuropsychological test data are of doubtful validity and may work against the academic interests of the student. (See also EC 115 149-154.)
