Does the Response-to-Intervention Model Fundamentally Alter the Traditional Conceptualization of Specific Learning Disability?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kranzler, John H.; Yaraghchi, Melina; Matthews, Katherine; Otero-Valles, Luis – Contemporary School Psychology, 2020
The aim of this study was to examine whether the use of a response-to-intervention (RTI) model to identify specific learning disability (SLD) over-identifies children and youth with population-relative (normative) weaknesses in general cognitive ability (IQs < 90). We compared the overall score on the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test-Second…

Maki, Kathrin E.; Barrett, Courtenay A.; Hajovsky, Daniel B.; Burns, Matthew K. – School Psychology, 2020
Students with specific learning disabilities (SLDs) represent a large proportion of those receiving special education services in U.S. schools, but the relationship between student-level variables and SLD identification is still not well understood. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which data collected as part of a…

The Effect of Achievement Test Selection on Identification of Learning Disabilities within a Patterns of Strengths and Weaknesses Framework
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Miciak, Jeremy; Taylor, W. Pat; Denton, Carolyn A.; Fletcher, Jack M. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2015
Few empirical investigations have evaluated learning disabilities (LD) identification methods based on a pattern of cognitive strengths and weaknesses (PSW). This study investigated the reliability of LD classification decisions of the concordance/discordance method (C/DM) across different psychoeducational assessment batteries. C/DM criteria were…

Miciak, Jeremy; Fletcher, Jack M.; Stuebing, Karla K.; Vaughn, Sharon; Tolar, Tammy D. – School Psychology Quarterly, 2014
Few empirical investigations have evaluated learning disabilities (LD) identification methods based on a pattern of cognitive strengths and weaknesses (PSW). This study investigated the reliability and validity of two proposed PSW methods: the concordance/discordance method (C/DM) and cross battery assessment (XBA) method. Cognitive assessment…

Skues, Jason L.; Cunningham, Everarda G. – Australian Journal of Educational & Developmental Psychology, 2013
This study examined the validity of using teacher-administered educational and intelligence tests to screen students for learning disabilities (LDs). Twenty-seven Technical and Further Education (TAFE) students from regional Victoria who were enrolled in a program that was designed to reconnect school dropouts with education via TAFE participated…

Relation between Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test and WISC-III Scores of Children with RD.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Chin, Christopher E.; Ledesma, Heloise Marie L.; Cirino, Paul T.; Sevcik, Rose A.; Morris, Robin D.; Frijters, Jan C.; Lovett, Maureen W. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2001
Concurrent validity of the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (K-BIT) with the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III) was evaluated. Both measures were administered to 65 children (ages 6-7). Results suggest caution against using the K-BIT exclusively for placement and diagnostic purposes with young children with reading…

The Relationship between the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-III in a Clinical Sample.
Javorsky, James – Diagnostique, 1993
This study found a significant relationship between the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (K-BIT) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-III (WISC-III) in 63 youth at a psychiatric hospital. A multiple regression equation was derived to provide an estimate of the WISC-III Full Scale Intelligence Quotient using the composites of the K-BIT.…

Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (K-BIT).
Smith, Douglas K. – Diagnostique, 1999
This article describes the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test, an assessment of intelligence for individuals ages 4 to 90. The test is designed for those circumstances in which a brief measure of intelligence will suffice and trained professionals may be unavailable for the assessments. Its administration, reliability, and validity are discussed.…
