Peer reviewedLevinson, Philip J.; Carpenter, Robert L. – Psychology in the Schools, 1975
Certain subtests of the WISC, ITPA, and Stanford-Binet are used as measures of analogical reasoning. Because several facts suggested that the form of analogy used on these subtests does not require subjects to engage in true analogical reasoning, the validity of these subtests as measures of analogical reasoning was investigated.

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 reviewedHammill, Donald; And Others – Journal of School Psychology, 1975
Investigated the relationship of the ITPA subtests to measures of academic performance (i.e., the California Achievement Test). Subjects were 137 nine-year old children. Results failed to support the hypothesis that psycholinguistic abilities, except those which contribute to the Grammatic Closure subtest, are related to academic proficiency.…

Leventhal, Donald S.; Stedman, Donald J. – 1967
The Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities (ITPA) is a psychodiagnostic instrument devised to assess theoretically discrete and basic cognitive skills. In its genesis the ITPA, comprising nine subtests, was designed to provide independent estimates of a child's level of functioning in each of the nine abilities theoretically addressed. Factor…

Roberts, Elsa – 1970
Four tests--PPVT, ITPA, MRT, WPPSI--commonly used to measure language development in young children are evaluated by four criteria: (1) what development aspects do they claim to tap; (2) what do they actually tap; (3) what linguistic knowledge is presupposed; (4) what special problems face a non-standard English speaker. These tests are considered…
