The causal model approach used in this study tested the cumulative hierarchical structure of the six major taxonomic levels of Bloom's Taxonomy by measuring the strengths of the linear relationships ( links'') between levels. (Editor)

The hypothesis that it is possible to find among a normal population a group with the same level of intelligence as a group of institutionalized retarded persons was confirmed in a study of 2,000 19-year-old males registering for military service. (Authors)

The alpha rhythm frequencies (8 to 13 cycles per second, occurring during a S's relaxed state with eyes closed, measured by the electroencephalogram) of three groups of Ss (30 Down's Syndrome residents, 21 psychiatric patients, and 10 university students) aged 13 to 24 years, were determined according to explicit criteria.

Infants in a day care center were studied until age 36 months and tested periodically with the Bayley Scales, the Stanford-Binet, and the ITPA. Predictions of I.Q. were fulfilled much better than in previous studies and a constant environment was suggested as a contributing factor. (ST)

Kindergarten children were tested on Kershner's spatial model, two WISC performance tests, and two Piagetian tasks. Results validated Kershner's work but not his claims that his test measures conservation or dimensional concepts. (ST)

The Slosson Intelligence Test and the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (Form L-M) were administered to 44 children. A comparison of measured IQs indicated that the Slosson overestimated IQ when compared with the Stanford-Binet, for 39 of the 44 children. The results also suggest that although a high degree of correlation was attained with the…

For each of the six age groups comprising the complete standardization sample reported in the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI) manual, the matrix of intercorrelations among the subtests was separately factor analyzed. Results suggest that the Perceptual Organization factor of the WPPSI may be a valid measure of Witkin's…

In this study, the manipulation of motivation conditions through explicit examiner's expectancy of good performance was used to improve significantly the performance on intelligence tests. (Author/KM)

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 purposes of this study were to determine which of the tests, PPVT, SIT, or Lorge-Thorndike (LT), may be the most useful to the classroom teacher in predicting reading achievement, for use in reading expectancy formulas, and for analyzing I.Q. scores obtained on different tests. (Author/RK)

Intelligence was described as allowing the development of creativity, but not insuring such development. Personality and environmental factors may be important in creativity expression especially at upper intelligence ranges. (Author)

Purpose of this study was to test a short version of the Stanford-Binet, Form L-M using a group covering a wide age and ability level in an attempt to reduce the time factor involved in administration of some of the S-B tests, without sacrificing the reported accuracy. (Author/CB)
