Rivers, Susan E.; Brackett, Marc A.; Reyes, Maria R.; Mayer, John D.; Caruso, David R.; Salovey, Peter – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2012
Emotional intelligence (EI) theory provides a framework to study the role of emotion skills in social, personal, and academic functioning. Reporting data validating the importance of EI among youth have been limited due to a dearth of measurement instruments. In two studies, the authors examined the reliability and validity of the…

Rogers, Dan L. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1980
To assess the utility and reliability of Bender test recall in children, 304 children (ages 5 through 14) were individually administered the copy and recall phases using Koppitz's directions. The recall phase was judged to be of doubtful utility in assessing intellectual functioning in children. (Author/SJL)

Conger, Anthony J.; And Others – Applied Psychological Measurement, 1979
The WISC-R was investigated by using measures of profile (multivariate) reliability to determine its most reliable dimensions and the precision and similarity of the multivariate structure across age groups. The structure of the WISC-R subscales was stable across age groups. Two strategies for the interpretation of WISC-R profiles are offered.…

Reliability of subtest composites corresponding to 46 abilities and influences presented by Kaufman (1979) was examined for the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children using standardization sample data (ages 6, 11, and 16). Increasing composite reliability was associated with the number of subtests and inclusion of Verbal Scale subtests in the…

Osborne, R. T.; Suddick, D. E. – Journal of Genetic Psychology, 1972
The mental growth patterns of 204 children were investigated on four different test occasions covering a five-year period, ages six to 11. There is no evidence of intellectual differentiation after age six nor is there a systematic decline in size of WISC subtest intercorrelations with increasing age. (Authors)

Hopkins, Kenneth D.; Bracht, Glenn H. – American Educational Research Journal, 1975
The results of this study show that, below ten years of age, stability in IQ scores from group verbal tests is considerably below that for Stanford-Binet. Non-verbal IQ scores were found to have substantially less stability than verbal IQs. (Author/DEP)

Kaufman, Alan S.; And Others – 1994
The reliability and validity of three short forms of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children III (WISC-III) were compared. Each of the short forms was a tetrad composed of two verbal and two performance subtests. The first tetrad was selected based primarily on practical considerations, particularly its brevity to administer and score. The…

Gonda, Judith; And Others – 1979
Recent efforts have been made to develop more age-appropriate intelligence measures for the elderly to determine the nature of age differences and changes in adult cognitive development. Spatial and reasoning performances of young, young-old and old-old individuals were compared on traditional versus familiar and presumably more meaningful…

Webster, Raymond E.; Bates, Herman M., III – 1977
Public Law 94-142 mandates the identification and placement of learning disabled children based primarily on the measurement of intelligence. It is, therefore, the responsibility of educational psychologists to use standardized intelligence tests appropriately to accurately and objectively assess a childs' intellectual potential and ability. Three…
