AB - This study examined the possible differences among Internalizing, Externalizing, and normal children on WISC-R factors and measures from the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test. The groups were selected using the Teacher Report Form of the Child Behavior Checklist. The three groups were matched on age, SES, and FSIQ. The matching yielded 36 subjects (12 per group). Significant between-group differences were found on the WCST Perseverative Errors (p < .01) and the Freedom From Distractibility factor of the WISC-R (p < .01). Significant within-groups differences also were found. A discriminant function analysis was conducted, which correctly classified 80.6% of the 36 children based on CBCL groupings. It is concluded that neuropsychological and WISC-R factor comparisons add discriminative power to and should be included in the assessment of emotional disability.
