This study provides data that concern the relationships among the usual clinical approach to memory measurement and results from several standard memory tests. (Author)

This study assessed the validity of the Pain Apperception Test (PAT) against an accepted and validated predictive measure of pain tolerance, a Kinesthetic After Effects Task (KAE). As well, it replicated an earlier finding by Petrovich that suggested that scores derived from the PAT are related significantly to neuroticism. (Author/RK)

Attempts to establish further the validity of the Child Scale, to investigate the individual nature of the items that compose the scale and their value as demographic factors in the prediction of therapeutic outcome, and to document further the use of target complaints as criteria in investigating the outcome of psychotherapy.

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

Vane Kindergarten Test and WPPSI scores of 33 kindergarten children were compared. Obtained results suggest that the VKT is promising method to assess intelligence in a reasonably brief period of time and provides results comparable to those of the more time-consuming WPPSI. (Author)

The major purpose of this investigation was to assess the concurrent validity of the French Pictorial Test of Intelligence with the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, Form L-M in a moderate to severly physically disabled sample of children. (Author)

This paper presents data that imply the need for caution in the clinical use of the SHTRS (Shipley-Hartford Total Raw Score) to predict WAIS FSIQ (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Full Scale IQ) and that show a sex difference in Shipley and predicted scores. (Author/RK)

Fifteen male college students and 15 male process schizophrenics were used as Ss in this study. Intercorrelations among IQs, AQs, AQ-IQ discreoancies, RPRS scores, and psychiatric status of the Ss (schizophrenics vs. normals) were computed. (Author)

This study examined age and sex differences, and the interaction of age x sex, with respect to "meaning in life" as defined by Frankl and measured by the Purpose-in-Life Test (PIL) developed by Crumbaugh and Maholick. (Author)

Explores more directly the alleged defensive interpretation of the L scale by relating it to another measure of defensiveness, viz, the denial scale (Dn) and to two other measures that presumably do not reflect defensiveness, viz, the MMPI Schizophrenia (Sc) and Hypochondriasis (Hs) scales. (Author/RK)

This study provides additional data on the validity of the MCPS when used with severely disturbed children. (Author)

Examines the Personal Health Survey methodology and suggests that in studying the factorial composition of physical and mental health complaints in limited populations, the data provides normative information "only" for the samples tested on one occasion. States further that it would require large-scale normative studies to make any…

The effectiveness of the Wechsler Memory Scale as a screening test for brain dysfunction when used with "new" scoring procedures was assessed in this cross-validation study. (Editor)

The present study was undertaken as a reanalysis of data collected and reported by Lair and Biddy to determine whether the personality dimensions of denial or anxiety, as measured by the MMPI, predict subsequent open heart surgery mortality differently by sex. (Author)
