对233名5 ~ 12岁的正常儿童进行了神经心理成套测验。参与者根据（a）年龄（5至6岁，7至8岁，9至10岁或11至12岁），（B）社会经济水平（高或低）和（c）性别进行平衡。因此，获得了4x 2x2的设计，每个单元中平均有15名受试者。对于神经心理学成套测验，通过波士顿言语测试（BNT; Kaplan，Goodglass，& Weintraub，1983）、令牌测试缩短版（De Renzi & Faglioni，1978）和言语流畅性（语义和语音）来评估语言。通过韦氏记忆量表（WMS; Wechsler，1945）和顺序言语记忆测试评估记忆。视觉空间能力进行了评估Rey-Osterrieth复杂图（ROCF）的副本和立即复制和叠加Poppelreuter型数字的识别。受试者的性别是一个显着的变量在三个测试（BNT，ROCF复制，和ROCF记忆），和社会经济水平是显着的，其中七个（BNT，令牌测试，语义言语流畅性，语音言语流畅性，WMS，顺序言语记忆，和识别叠加的数字）。在WMS的因素分析中发现了三个因素（一般记忆因素、注意力因素和言语记忆因素），其中包括逻辑记忆、视觉再现和联想学习子测试的延迟回忆。神经心理测验的成绩与学业成绩之间存在显著的相关性，神经心理成套测验的结果具有规范性。
A neuropsychological battery was given to 233 normal children ages 5 to 12 years. Participants were balanced according to (a) age (5 to 6, 7 to 8, 9 to 10, or 11 to 12 years old), (b) socioeconomic level (high or low), and (c) sex. A 4 x 2 x 2 design was thus obtained with an average of 15 subjects in each cell. For die neuropsychological battery, language was assessed via the Boston Naming Test (BNT; Kaplan, Goodglass, & Weintraub, 1983), Token Test-shortened version (De Renzi & Faglioni, 1978), and verbal fluency, both semantic and phonologic. Memory was assessed via die Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS; Wechsler, 1945) and a Sequential Verbal Memory Test. Visuospatial abilities were assessed by Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure (ROCF) copy and immediate reproduction and by recognition of superimposed Poppelreuter-type figures. Sex of subject was a significant variable in three of the tests (BNT, ROCF-copy, and ROCF-memory), and socioeconomic level was significant in seven of them (BNT, Token Test, semantic verbal fluency, phonologic verbal fluency, WMS, Sequential Verbal Memory, and recognition of superimposed figures). Three factors were found in a factor analysis of the WMS (a General Memory factor, an Attentional factor, and a Verbal Memory factor) in which delayed recall for Logical Memory, Visual Reproduction, and Associative Learning subtests was included. Some statistically significant correlations between performance in neuropsychological tests and academic performance were found. Normative results for the neuropsychological battery test are presented.
