  • Title: Failure of the Bender-Gestalt and Wechsler tests to differentiate children with and without seizure disorders.
    Author: Hauer AL, Armentrout JA.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1978 Aug; 47(1):199-202. PubMed ID: 704248.
    Abstract:
    The Bender-Gestalt and WISC or WISC-R performances of two groups of 19 emotionally disturbed children matched in age age (9-1 to 16-7) and Full Scale IQ were compared. Each child is one group had a medically documented seizure disorder; a matched child in the other group had no present or past indications of organicity. Neither Bender-Gestalt errors nor Wechsler IQs or Deviation Quotients differed significantly between the two groups. The emotionally disturbed children with seizure disorders could not be differentiated from the other emotionally disturbed children solely on the basis of Bender-Gestalt and Wechsler test scores.
