Bridgett, David J.; Walker, Michael E. – Psychological Assessment, 2006
Although attention has been given to the intellectual functioning of children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) relative to their non-ADHD peers, few studies have examined intellectual functioning in adults with ADHD. The purpose of the current investigation was to examine differences in intellectual ability between adults with…

Schroth, Marvin L. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
This study investigated the relationship between Jensen's Level I-Level II mental abilities and how they correlate with problem solving in college students. The Level I-Level II correlation was not significant, but intelligence and problem solving were significantly correlated. Results are discussed in relation to prior findings. (Author/RD)

Blaha, John; Wallbrown, Fred H. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1982
Obtained a hierarchical factor solution on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) subtest intercorrelations for the nine age groups included in the standardization sample. Findings support the validity of the WAIS-R as a measure of general intelligence and the validity of maintaining separate Verbal and Performance IQs. (Author)

Ensor, Allan; Phelps, LeAdelle – Journal of the American Deafness and Rehabilitation Association, 1989
The Performance Scale of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised was administered to 185 hearing-impaired young adults. A gender difference was found only on the Digit Symbol subtest, where females outperformed males. The high degree of factorial similarity between males and females indicated that the underlying construct being measured does…

Russell, Elbert W. – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
The Revised Wechsler Memory Scale, Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale subtests, and Halstead-Reitan battery were factor analyzed. Five types of memory were isolated: immediate verbal, recent verbal, recent figural, figural learning, and verbal learning storage. Loadings of memory and nonmemory tests indicate a closer relationship between some of…

Hiltonsmith, Robert W.; And Others – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1982
Investigated the utility of the Revised Beta as a screening device for low-functioning minority-group criminal offenders. Mean scores for this sample were correlated only mildly. This finding contradicts prior research and creates the need for caution in using the Beta as a screening device with this population. (Author)

Nelson, W. M., III; And Others – Journal of Personality Assessment, 1978
This study used 126 young adult black and white male inmates to test the comparability of the Pauker and Statz and Mogul short forms with the standard Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). The Pauker form was superior with this population. Findings should not be generalized to other ages, races, or to women. (Author/CP)

Ziegler, Mark E.; Doehrman, Steven – Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1979
Analysis of correlations between Verbal and Full Scale IQ scores for 231 high-IQ psychiatric outpatients indicated that Verbal IQ appears partially valid as a WAIS short form for this higher IQ group. Results are interpreted in terms of Resnick and Entin's short form validity criteria. (Editor/SJL)

Morgan, Anna W.; Sullivan, Susan A.; Darden, Cindy; Gregg, Noel – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1997
This study involving 30 college students with learning disabilities and 30 students without learning disabilities (ages 18-30) compared results obtained on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised and the Kaufman Adolescent and Adult Intelligence Test.

Nevo, Baruch; Sela, Roni – High Ability Studies, 2003
This research studied the interchangeability of individually administered and group administered cognitive tests. Seventy undergraduate students took the Hebrew version of the WAIS-R (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised), and their IQs were measured. They also took the IPET (Israeli Psychometric Entrance Test) and their IPET scores were…

Edinger, Jack D.; Norwood, Peggy E. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1975
Investigated the efficacy of various WAIS short forms among outpatients. Results favor Pauker's (1963) short form but also show a decrease in correspondence between short-form and Full Scale scores when the short forms are administered separately. (Author/EJT)

Wagner, Edwin E.; McCormick, Mary Kathleen – Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1982
Subjects with higher verbal than performance IQ's achieved significantly poorer Pascal-Suttell Bender-Gestalt scores than subjects with higher performance over verbal IQ's. The latter subjects were more likely to have dropped out of high school and to have spent some time in prison. (Author/RD)

Deary, Ian J.; Whalley, Lawrence J.; Crawford, John R. – Intelligence, 2004
Change in cognitive functioning is an important aspect of human aging and a key outcome in many medical conditions. However, cognitive change can rarely be measured directly, since prior cognitive data do not exist for most people. We examined the criterion validity and one-year stability of the difference between National Adult Reading Test…

Carvajal, Tony L.; And Others – Psychology in the Schools, 1984
Investigated the change in IQ scores over time of subjects in classes for the Educable Mentally Handicapped. Analysis indicated a significant difference existed between Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children scores administered at initial placement and Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale scores administered later (mean age, 17 years-6 months).…
