Mishra, Shitala P.

Psychology in the Schools, v18 n2 p154-58 Apr 1981

A study with Mexican-American children showed the internal consistency reliability coefficients for the Wide Range Achievement Test (WRAT) were high and comparable to those reported in the WRAT manual. A high relationship was found between WRAT and Metropolitan Achievement Test scores. WRAT meets reliability and validity requirements with Mexican American children. (Author)
