Peer reviewedThompson, Anthony; Browne, Janet; Schmidt, Fred; Boer, Marian – Assessment, 1997
The validity of a four-subtest short form of the third edition of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-III) and the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (K-BIT) was evaluated with 42 adolescent offenders. Findings support the clinical use of the short form as a good estimate of WISC-III full-scale IQ. (SLD)
