Abstract

There has been a relative absence of studies that have examined comprehensively the neuropsychological profiles of females with Triple X Syndrome across a battery of tests and measures. A case is reported of a 9 1/2-year-old female with Triple X Syndrome whose neuropsychological test results were suggestive of greater right- versus left-cerebral hemisphere dysfunction. Overall, the patient's neuropsychological profile was indicative of the syndrome of Nonverbal Learning Disabilities (NLD) as proposed by Rourke (Rourke 1987, 1988, 1995; Rourke & Tsatsanis, 1996). The results are discussed in light of Rourke's NLD Syndrome and the related white matter model.
