Psychological assessment, using standard psychometric tests, was carried out in 375 cases of clinically diagnosed Down syndrome to study the degree of mental handicap. There were 160 (42.7%) cases in the severely retarded group, while 43 (11.5%) were profoundly retarded, 124 (33.1%) were moderately retarded, 34 (9.1%) were mildly retarded and 7 (1.9%) belonged to the category of borderline intelligence.
