[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BTW, IQ is an important predictor for all kids with developmental disabilities and learning disabilities. The higher the IQ, the more likely you are to have a positive outcome. That is true for language delays, dyslexia, ADHD, etc. IQ makes a huge difference. There really isn't good data for kids with ASD who have IQ scores over 100. Most studies look at outcomes for kids with IQs "above 85" (ie in the "dull normal" range and above) and below 85.[/quote] Probably because it is near impossible to do an IQ test on the kids. We did testing and the ped gave up and said average on the report but his belief was much higher. I don't get the comment beyond it is common sense - anyone with a higher IQ regardless will probably have greater success.[/quote]
