The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for the results of all pupils and the Shapiro-
Wilk test for the sample of students with disabilities and for the sample of

students without disabilities showed that the distributions of results on almost

all PIQ-T subscales deviated statistically significantly from normal. The
nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test was used to test the significance of the

differences between the results.
