Universal screening of very early school-age children (age 4-7 years) is important for early identification of learning problems that may require enhanced learning opportunity. In this context, use of standardized instruments is critical to obtain valid, reliable, and comparable assessment outcomes. A wide variety of standardized instruments is…

Compared the abilities of the most recent editions of the Henmon-Nelson and the Slosson tests to estimate Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (Revised) scaled scores and intelligence quotients. The Henmon-Nelson's validity coefficients were higher than their counterparts for the Slosson, but the Slosson had a higher ceiling and a lower floor.…

The SIT is an individual test of intelligence, for both children and adults, requiring no specialized training. (Authors)

The purpose of this study was to replicate and slightly refine and extend the procedures of Houston and Otto, who pointed out the need for studying the relationship between easily administered, individual measures of intelligence with more diagnostic and more highly validated measures. (Author/RK)

The validity of the Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT) relative to the California Short Form Test of Mental Maturity and the Shipley-Institute of Living Scale was investigated on a sample of college students. Results supported the validity of the SIT. (Author/JKS)

Noting the lack of research comparing the Test of Nonverbal Intelligence (TONI) with other measures of intelligence, a study was conducted to ascertain concurrent validity. The TONI was compared to the Slosson Intelligence Test for Children and Adults (SIT) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Revised (WISC-R). Subjects, 43 males and…

The present study examined long-term relationships among the SIT, the Stanford-Binet, L-M (SB) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). (Author)

The Slosson Intelligence Test and the Shipley Institute of Living Scale were administered in a test-retest fashion to a sample of undergraduates. Correlations between the instruments were moderate and reliabilities for the instruments were moderate to low. (JKS)

The use and validity of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Slooson Intelligence Test as screening devices when compared to the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children was studied in 36 mentally retarded adolescents. (Author)

The California Psychological Inventory (CPI), the Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT), and the Shipley-Institute of Living Scale (SILS) were administered to undergraduates. The Intellectual Efficiency scale scores were correlated .52 with the SIT scores and .39 with the SILS scores. The SIT and SILS were correlated .49. (Author/GK)
