    Abstract:
    Prospective longitudinal data from children at a school for learning disabled were obtained. Intelligence and language scores were assessed at first grade and two years later. The results of two samples from Erlangen and München showed a high stability of the intelligence scores but less stability of the language scores. There were remarkable improvements in language comprehension. Expressive language had a constant lag compared with the test-standard of children of the same age; the articulation did improve as expected. The children from this special school still had problems with verbal short term memory.
