Cognitive Ability and Everyday Functioning in Women with Turner Syndrome.
Downey, Jennifer; And Others
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v24 n1 p32-39 Jan 1991
Comparison of 23 Turner syndrome (TUS) women with 23 women with constitutional short stature (CSS) found significant group differences for Performance and Full Scale IQ, largely due to TUS women's deficits in spatial and mathematical ability. TUS individuals had significantly lower educational and occupational attainment than CSS controls but did not differ from their siblings in educational attainment. (Author/DB)
