Abstract	Many researchers have attempted to link children's drawings to intelligence. The Goodenough-Harris Draw-a-Man (DAM) and Draw-a-Woman (DAW) test has been accepted as an indicator of intelligence. This study, via examination of specific cases, explored the effect that instruction in drawing cartoons had on the DAM and DAW performance of 16 sixth-grade students in a full-inclusive class from a rural area of eastern Oregon. There was no overall effect of cartooning instruction, but when students' performances were analyzed by subgroup, those who had the lowest pretest scores on both the DAM and the DAW gained in their posttest performance. Students with average and above-average abilities did not improve. One table presents standard pretest and posttest scores, and eight figures illustrate examples of student drawings.
