Peer reviewedSpitz, Herman H. – Intelligence, 1989
Studies involving groups administered the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) and the WAIS-Revised were examined to determine the validity of J. R. Flynn's (1987) findings of massive intelligence quotient gains in a single generation in many nations. Results for sampled adults support Flynn for the average intelligence range only. (TJH)

Peer reviewedDodge, Robert; And Others – Psychology in the Schools, 1981
Investigated the validities of IQs obtained from independent administration Terman-Merrill (T-M) versus the rescoring method (SF) of the short form of the Stanford-Binet Form L-M. Results indicated that the T-M, depending on test sequence, correlated significantly different with the Full Scale Binet IQ than did the SF rescoring method. (Author)

Peer reviewedPhelps, LeAdelle; And Others – Psychology in the Schools, 1988
Compared Stanford-Binet (Fourth Edition) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised as instruments for assessing the intellectual strengths and weaknesses of students (N=35) classified as learning disabled in elementary and secondary grades. Results suggest the tests will yield similar intelligence quotients for the learning disabled…

Peer reviewedBenedict, Ralph H. B.; And Others – Psychological Assessment, 1992
The concurrent validities of 3 short forms of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) were compared for their prediction of full-scale IQ for 145 male and 159 female psychiatric inpatients. Results support previous research showing better predictive accuracy for L. C. Ward's (1990) seven-subtest short form than the others. (SLD)

Avery, Richard O.; And Others – Education and Training in Mental Retardation, 1989
Scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) Verbal, Performance, and Full Scales were compared for 26 adolescents with educable mental handicaps. The WAIS-R, while strongly correlated with the WISC-R, provided higher scores on all three scales. Several WISC-R…
