INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this article is to describe the language ability and school functioning of early adolescents with perinatal HIV/AIDS.
METHOD: Participants included 43 youths, 9-15 years, and their primary caregivers. Youths completed the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) and the Reading Subtest of the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT3) and were interviewed regarding their future educational aspirations and parental supervision and involvement with homework. Caregivers were interviewed regarding the child's school achievement, parental supervision and monitoring, and educational aspirations for their child.
RESULTS: Fifty-four percent of youths scored below average (<25th percentile) on the PPVT, and 29% scored below the 10th percentile; 40% scored below average (<25th percentile) on the WRAT3, and 24% scored below the 10th percentile. Scores were associated with parental monitoring and educational aspirations.
DISCUSSION: Youths performed poorly on tests of verbal and reading ability, although their scores were not dissimilar to those of other samples of inner-city youths. Future research should attempt to isolate the impact of HIV disease on intellectual and school functioning of HIV+ youths.
