摘要:The aim of the current study was to compare the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children - Third Edition,
UK adaptation (WISC-IIIuk) scores of Indian primary school children when Indian and UK norms are used. The
sample consisted of 300 primary school children, within the age range of 6 years to 10 years and 11 months. The
children were assessed using Children’s Behaviour Questionnaire (CBQ), NIMHANS Index for Specific Learning
Disabilities and WISC-IIIuk. The children scored 16, 21 and 20 points lower on Verbal, Performance and Full Scale
scales, respectively when UK norms were used. The findings emphasize the need to establish national/ regional
norms for assessing intelligence of children in India.
