Factor Structure of the McCarthy Scales for Children Experiencing Problems in School.

Keith, Timothy Z.; Bolen, Larry M.

Psychology in the Schools, v17 n3 p320-26 1980

The McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities (MSCA) General Cognitive Index provides a good measure of cognitive ability of exceptional children. The verbal and motor scales also seem valid. Interpretation of remaining scales should be made cautiously as scales may not accurately measure abilities of exceptional children. (Author/JAC)
