ASSESSMENT OF SHORT-TERM VISUAL MEMORY IN CHILD AND ADOLESCENT PSYCHIATRIC-INPATIENTS

This study provides normative data on 270 child and adolescent psychiatric inpatients using the Bender Recall technique as a measure of short‐term visual memory. In addition, the authors present normative data on another immediate recall technique using the Coding section of the WISC‐R. These findings are examined in light of age differences and IQ scores. Detailed instructions for administering the Coding Recall technique are presented. Copyright © 1991 Wiley Periodicals, Inc., A Wiley Company
