Abstract

Using the Pintner-Cunningham Mental Test for grades 1-3, National Intelligence Test for grades 4-7, Terman Group Test for grades 8-12 on a total of 825 children, the author found a consistently low average IQ and concluded that the assumption of a specific language handicap in Spanish children was untenable.
