Performances of retarded young adults on the Porteus Maze Test were compared with those of first- through fourth-grade nonretarded children. The retarded subjects, approximately matched on MA with the fourth-grade group, performed at the level of the first graders and were reliably poorer than the third and fourth graders. This MA lag of at least 2 years is consistent with the MA lag previously found on strategic games and puzzles. The retarded and first-grade groups spent more time completing mazes than did the other groups.
将发育迟缓的年轻人在波特斯迷宫测试中的表现与一至四年级未发育迟缓儿童的表现进行了比较。发育迟缓的受试者在心理年龄上与四年级组大致匹配，但其表现处于一年级学生的水平，且明显比三年级和四年级学生差。这种至少两年的心理年龄滞后与之前在策略游戏和谜题中发现的心理年龄滞后一致。与其他组相比，发育迟缓组和一年级组完成迷宫的时间更长。
