The intellectual, academic, and adaptive strengths and weaknesses of 30, medication-free children (M = 10.5 years) with Tourette syndrome (TS) were assessed with a battery of standardized psychoeducational measures and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales. Results indicated significant relative weaknesses in mental and written arithmetic, and relative strengths in reading achievement and abstract, logical thinking. Socialization skills emerged as a significant weakness in adaptive functioning. Comparisons between TS children with attention deficit disorder with hyperactivity (ADD-H) (n = 19) weakness in both groups in all areas assessed, but significantly lower performance IQs in TS subjects with ADD-H. These findings are discussed in relation to future research with TS children.
采用一系列标准化的心理教育测评工具和文兰适应行为量表，对30名未服用药物的抽动秽语综合征（TS）儿童（平均年龄10.5岁）的智力、学业及适应方面的优势与劣势进行了评估。结果显示，在心智和书面算术方面存在显著的相对劣势，而在阅读成绩和抽象逻辑思维方面具有相对优势。社交技能在适应功能方面表现为显著劣势。将患有注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADD-H）的TS儿童（n = 19）进行比较，两组在所有评估领域均存在劣势，但患有ADD-H的TS受试者的操作智商显著更低。结合未来对TS儿童的研究对这些发现进行了讨论。
