Peer reviewedMadden, Theodore M. – Psychology in the Schools, 1974
In efforts to clarify ambiguity in the scoring directions for part of the WISC, 100 children were given the test which was scored by two sets of criteria. Four sets of data were analyzed, with significant discrepancies apparent only between Verbal-Performance correlations secured by Wechsler in his standardization of the WISC and those secured in…

Peer reviewedBurns, Edward – Psychology in the Schools, 1976
The relation between average deviation, as determined using the Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities, and Stanford-Binet intelligence scores was examined using a preschool sample. Results revealed a curvilinear relation between total average deviation and Stanford-Binet intelligence scores. Use of average deviation as an index of…

Peer reviewedRoszkowski, Michael J.; Bean, Andrew G. – Psychology in the Schools, 1980
The adaptive behaviors measured by Part I of the Adaptive Behavior Scale (ABS) showed relatively large associations with IQ. In contrast, Part II domains, which deal primarily with conduct disorders, showed low to negligible associations with IQ. (Author)

Peer reviewedSutton, Geoffrey W.; And Others – Psychology in the Schools, 1982
Compared the derived mental age (MA) of the Stanford-Binet to the test age (TA) of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (Revised) in 100 children. For subjects whose WISC-R scores fell within the TA table, the two were comparable. When extrapolated TAs were required, the scores were not comparable. (Author/JAC)

Stability of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children for a Sample of At-Risk Preschool Children.
Peer reviewedLyon, Mark A.; Smith, Douglas K. – Psychology in the Schools, 1987
Examined stability of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for 53 at-risk preschool children. Over 9 months the stability coefficients for the global scales ranged from .78 to .88, and for the subtests from .65 to .79. Concluded that scores display adequate stability, but the Simultaneous scale is less stable than the Sequential or Achievement scales.…

Peer reviewedReynolds, Cecil R. – Psychology in the Schools, 1983
Provides necessary statistical information for comparing subtests of the Test of Language Development-Primary (TOLD-P) to an individual's mean scaled score at each of five age levels. While it would be convenient to use the average of these values across the age levels, this procedure is inappropriate for the TOLD-P. (Author/JAC)

Peer reviewedSwerdlik, Mark E. – Psychology in the Schools, 1977
The paper reviews WISC/WISC-R comparison studies which have been conducted with a wide variety of samples. Caution is advised in the interpretation of a WISC/WISC-R difference, as a discrepancy of one SD may not be meaningful. (Author)
