Neuropsychological Bases of Common Learning and Behavior Problems in Children

Modal Profile Analysis was used to cluster students (aged 9 to 14 years) on 16 subtest scores from the Halstead-Reitan Neuropsychological Battery for Children (HRNB-C). This analysis produced eight modal profile types, all of which were replicated in multiple samples. An initial attempt to establish external validity indicated that the modal groups display dissimilar patterns of performance on independent variables. The present typology is compared to similar typologies developed with adult neuropsychological data. In sum, the current classification system provided less coverage than the adult typologies, but produced more unique or homogeneous modal groups. Discussion focuses on potential clinical and research uses of the modal HRNB-C profiles.
