Abstract

We study 22 cases with WISC and TALE, and we com­pare them with two control groups. Ali the patients have importan! learning disabilities (22 cases of Depression (D) and JO cases with Reading-Writing Disorders
(RWD).
Results: The THI have 38% of reading-writing disor­ders, with normal QJ. We propase an lndex with the WISC, to differenciate ADHD with RWD from ADHD without RWD. The ADHDs show a characteristic profile if they are compared with Depressive patients; but this profile is similar to the ADHH without RWD. If we com­pare RWD and ADHD with RWD, there are not differences.
