Wurtz, Reesa Guller; And Others
Psychology in the Schools, v22 n3 p293-302 Jul 1985
Examined Estimated Learning Potential (ELP) and IQ scores as predictors of learning task performance in 31 Black and 32 White educable mentally retarded children. ELP did not correlate more highly with performance than did IQ score, yet ELP may be more differentially sensitive to declassifying Blacks as retarded. (NRB)
