Factor Analysis of the K-ABC for Groups of Anglo and Mexican American Children.

Valencia, Richard R.; Rankin, Richard J.

Journal of Educational Measurement, v23 n3 p209-19 Fall 1986

Factor analyses of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) were performed on separate groups of Anglo (n=100) and Mexican-American (n=100) fifth-grade children to determine the comparability of underlying structures and to examine the existence of possible bias in construct validity of the K-ABC for each group.
