“…While these tests appeared to be equivalent, a surprisingly large discrepancy was found between the two verbal and the two nonverbal IQ's. Hermann and Hackman (64) reported the results of testing two samples of veterans, one with the W-B and one with the CTMM. The IQ's were higher for the sample receiving the CTMM, but sampling biases, recognized by the authors, make conclusions impossible.…”

CONCLUSIONSWithin the limitations of the design of the problem and the samples of subjects 1. 2. 3. 4.studied, the following conclusions were found : Verbal I& is indicative of ability to learn in verbal situations. Performance I& is indicative of ability to learn in nonverbal situations.Equality of verbal and performance IQ's is indicative of no difference in verbal and nonverbal abilities. Subtest variation is inversely related to learning proficiency. REFERENCES BIJOU, S. W. The psychometric approach as an aid to clinical analysis-a review. Amer. J . M a t . Def., 1942, 46, 354-362.

“…In a recent paper, Hermann and Kackman [3] reported the results on the Wechsler-Bellevue of 1877 non-neuropsychiatric veterans and 412 neuropsychiatric veterans who had come to a VA Guidance Center. A comparison of verbal subtests scores between their sighted group and the blinded veterans shows slight but significant differences in mean scores in favor of the blinded soldiers, though there is a somewhat larger scatter in the latter group (Tables 7 and 8).…”

The performances of 624 newly blinded soliders on the verbal scale of the W-B are analyzed. The significantly poorer performance in the Digit Span test by this group was interpreted to indicate some impairment in sustained attention. No significant difference in test performance was observed between subjects who had been blind for different periods of time ranging from 2 to 34 months. Blindness does not affect the basic intellectual functions when it occurs in adulthood.
