Cheong, Janice M. Y.; Walker, Zachary M.; Rosenblatt, Kara – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2017
Mathematics is an important aspect of daily life. Basic numeracy skills are needed to accomplish everyday tasks. However, research regarding the relationship between cognitive ability, mental age, and basic numeracy skills for children with intellectual disability (ID) is scarce. This research study investigated the correlation between…

Mental Age and Cognitive Stage in Young Handicapped and At-Risk Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Seibert, Jeffrey M.; And Others – Intelligence, 1984
Do stage-related patterns of early cognitive development reported for normally developing children also characterize at-risk and handicapped children when mental age organization of data is used? Mental age predicted Piagetian-based cognitive levels one to three but did not predict highest-level symbolic functioning in 95 handicapped children.…

A Piagetian Test of General Intelligence.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Humphreys, Lloyd G.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1985
Since early research had shown that a total score on 27 Piagetian tasks was very highly correlated with a Wechsler and achievement composite, a study investigated the possibility of shortening the Piagetian test by means of classical analysis methodology. (HOD)

Mayes Motor-Free Compilation (MMFC) for Assessing Mental Ability in Children with Physical Impairments.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Mayes, Susan Dickerson – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 1999
The Mayes Motor Free Compilation (MMFC) assesses mental ability in young (under age 2) children with motor disabilities. This study evaluated the concurrent validity of the MMFC by administering it and the Bayley Scales of Infant Development to normal children. Findings suggest that the MMFC provides a valid estimate of mental age, even without…

Concurrent Validity of the Mayes Motor-Free Compilation (MMFC) for Assessing Mental Ability in Children with Physical Impairments.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Pelco, Lynn E.; Sarpolis, Deborah L. – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 1999
This study investigated the concurrent validity of the Mayes Motor Free Compilation (MMFC) using the mental scale of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development (BSID) as the criterion variable with 50 typically developing preschool-aged children. Results indicated that the MMFC and the BSID scores were significantly and positively correlated.…
