Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hajovsky, Daniel B.; Villeneuve, Ethan F.; Mason, Benjamin A.; De Jong, David A. – School Psychology Review, 2018
Cognitive ability and spelling predictors of written expression were examined between gender groups as well as across age and writing skill levels using quantile regression with the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children--Second Edition and the Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement--Second Edition conormed standardization sample data (N =…

Hajovsky, Daniel; Reynolds, Matthew R.; Floyd, Randy G.; Turek, Joshua J.; Keith, Timothy Z. – School Psychology Review, 2014
The structural relations between the Cattell-Horn-Carroll abilities and reading achievement outcome variables across child and adolescent development were examined in the "Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second Edition", and the "Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement, Second Edition", co-normed sample. We estimated…

Are Cattell-Horn-Carroll Broad Ability Composite Scores Exchangeable across Batteries?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Floyd, Randy G.; Bergeron, Renee; McCormack, Allison C.; Anderson, Janice L.; Hargrove-Owens, Gabrielle L. – School Psychology Review, 2005
Many school psychologists use the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) theory of cognitive abilities to guide their interpretation of scores from intelligence test batteries. Some may frequently assume that composite scores purported to measure the same CHC broad abilities should be relatively similar for individuals no matter what subtests or batteries…

Ipsative Subtest Pattern Stability of the Bracken Basic Concept Scale and the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children in a Preschool Sample.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bracken, Bruce A.; And Others – School Psychology Review, 1991
Ipsative subtest pattern stability was examined for 60 preschool children (31 males and 29 females) on the Bracken Basic Concept Scale and the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children over a 4-6 week test-retest interval. The moderate level of profile stability found warrants cautious use of the ipsative interpretation approach. (SLD)

A Critical Review of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC).
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bracken, Bruce A. – School Psychology Review, 1985
Discrepancies between the K-ABC and its theoretical base of simultaneous and sequential mental processing; technical and design problems related to disproportionate subtest contributions of the Simultaneous Scale to the Mental Processing Composite; the method of subtest-specific variance computation and use in interpretation; and utility with…

Questioning the K-ABC: What Does It Measure?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Keith, Timothy Z. – School Psychology Review, 1985
Three levels from the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) standardization sample were randomly selected and their subtest score intercorrelations were subjected to factor analysis. The analyses yielded minor inconsistencies which suggest the instrument does not primarily measure simultaneous and sequential processing and achievement as…
