Partchev, Ivailo; De Boeck, Paul; Steyer, Rolf – Assessment, 2013
An old issue in psychological assessment is to what extent power and speed each are measured by a given intelligence test. Starting from accuracy and response time data, an approach based on posterior time limits (cut-offs of recorded response time) leads to three kinds of recoded data: time data (whether or not the response precedes the cut-off),…

Goebel, Ronald A.; Satz, Paul – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1975
Using multivariate profile analytic techniques and sampling from both brain-injured and psychiatric populations, results of this study provide strong evidence that the Satz-Mogel abbreviated Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) may be substituted for the standard WAIS for both general IQ assessment (in agreement with previous research) and…

Brannigan, Gary G. – Psychology in the Schools, 1975
Several studies concerning scoring difficulties on the Wechsler intelligence scales were reviewed. Since scoring of responses on the comprehension, similarities and vocabulary subtests of the Wechsler scales demands judgements by the examiner, the possibility of poor interscorer reliability increases. More thorough scoring standards and revision…

Putnam, Steven H.; And Others – Psychological Assessment, 1992
Difficulties inherent in differentiating practice effects from meaningful change in neuropsychological retest data are illustrated in this case study of a personal injury case. Although the patient demonstrated substantial gains on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Revised, most of the tests given on successive days did demonstrate acceptable…
