This article analyses research of theories and models of intelligence. It examines current developments in intelligence research, covering the formation of more complex and diverse intelligence theories. First, the article examines some of the widely used aptitude/intelligence tests include, such Stanford-Binet Intelligence Quotient, Wechsler…

One-hundred and sixty-four Black, White, and Latino children (7-15years old) with possible learning disabilities were administered the WISC (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children) and the WISC-R (Revised) to examine the similarity in the amount of subtest scatter equivalence of meaning, and degree of equivalent diagnosis between the two tests.

Fifty-nine prelingually deaf children (8-to 12-years-old) were tested with both the Performance Scale of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children Revised (WISC-R) and the Hiskey-Nebraska Test of Learning Aptitude (H-NTLA) results showed that scores from the WISC-R Performance Scale are comparable to scores from the H-NTLA and can be used in…

Forty-six Black children (seven- through ten-years-old) referred for learning or behavior problems were administered both the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children- Revised (WISC-R) and the WISC. Ss had significantly lower WISC-R than WISC score, supporting previous studies which suggest that the WISC-R norms are "tougher" than the…

Performed confirmatory factor analyses on the standardization data for the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (Revised) to test competing two- and three-factor hypotheses. Results slightly favored the three-factor solution, but must be weighed against the greater convenience of the two-factor…

The study compared the Woodcock-Johnson Psycho-Educational Battery Tests of Cognitive Ability and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Revised for a sample of 51 learning disabled children (7-11 years old). (Author/SBH)

Concludes that where significant interaction between the child and the examiner took place, black children achieved their highest scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children with a white examiner. (RB)

The Token Test and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children were administered to 46 nonretarded children (6-17 years old) with learning problems. (Author)

Evaluates facets of the Weschler Intelligence Scale for Children. (KS)

This study researches the effects of examiner verbal utterances on the intelligence test scores of educable mentally retarded subjects. It assumes that examiner-examinee rapport is essential for accurate test results. Positive verbal statements by examiners do have a significant effect on test scores. (NG)

Compared were subtest scores and full scale results on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children of 197 retarded (IQ 30-69) 7-to 15-year-old children. (CL)

This study investigated sex differences on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) subtests for retarded males and females who were matched in terms of WISC-R Full Scale IQ's. Sample consisted of 126 children. Evidence from the investigation indicated that a significant interaction effect existed between sex and subtest…

One hundred culturally disadvantaged children were tested on culture-fair (Raven) and culturally biased (WISC) tests, and scores were correlated with academic achievement. (Author)
