Peer reviewedBaum, Dale D. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 1975
In view of the high degree of correlation between the two instruments, findings suggest that the utility of the Peabody Individual Achievement Test (PIAT) as a wide-range achievement test is at least as promising as the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT) has been. (Author/RC)

Peer reviewedCordoni, Barbara K.; Snyder, Mary K. – Psychology in the Schools, 1981
Learning disabled college students (N=16) were tested to compare the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT) with the Peabody Individual Achievement Test (PIAT). Significantly different scores are derived when WRAT norms are compared with PIAT norms, indicating that the tests are not interchangeable instruments for academic achievement. (RC)
