Peer reviewedDodrill, Carl B. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1981
Evaluated the ability of the Wonderlic Personnel Test to replicate the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) with (N=120) normal persons divided into principal and cross-validation groups. Correlations between the Wonderlic IQs and the WAIS Full Scale IQs were .93 for the main group and .91 for the cross-validation group. (Author)

Peer reviewedChastain, Robert L.; Joe, George M. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1987
The standardization sample of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) was the basis for an analysis of the WAIS-R subscales in relation to demographic variables. Canonical correlation with orthogonal rotation of composite structural components was performed in order to determine interrelations between both sets of variables.…

Peer reviewedFeingold, Arnold – Sex Roles: A Journal of Research, 1993
Reviews developmental literature on cognitive gender differences; and compares past and present trends in gender differences, by age, from standardizations of the Wechsler Intelligence Scales and the California Achievement Tests. Decreases are found in gender differences for adolescents but not for adults. Implications are discussed. (SLD)

This study attempts to integrate and extend previous research by multivariate investigation to determine multidimensional relationships among both the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) subscales and the demographic variables for the 1981 WAIS-R standardization sample. Canonical correlation with orthogonal rotation of composite…

GROTELUESCHEN, ARDEN – 1968
IN THIS STUDY ON THE EFFECTS OF STRUCTURE AND SEQUENCE ON ADULT LEARNING, 96 ADULTS UNFAMILIAR WITH NUMBER BASES AND RANGING IN AGE FROM 23 TO 53 WERE RANDOMLY ASSIGNED TO FOUR DIFFERENTIALLY STRUCTURED INTRODUCTORY MATERIALS (HISTORY OF MEASUREMENT, BASE TEN, BASE SEVEN, OR PRINCIPLES OF NUMBER BASES) AND TO THREE DIFFERENTIALLY SEQUENCED…

BAYLEY, NANCY – 1966
IN THE LONGITUDINAL BERKELEY GROWTH STUDY, SUBJECTS WERE TESTED AT 16, 18, 21, AND 26 YEARS ON THE WECHSLER-BELLEVUE, AND AT 36 YEARS ON THE WECHSLER ADULT INTELLIGENCE SCALE, WHICH CONTAIN BOTH VERBAL AND NON-VERBAL SUBSCALES. THE MOST CONSISTENT INCREASES IN MEAN SCORES OVER THE PERIOD WERE IN INFORMATION, VOCABULARY, AND COMPREHENSION. DIGIT…
