Seven factors were found as the result of the factor analysis. No factor had a sufficient number of high loadings to justify interpretation as g", a general intelligence factor. The results of this study were compared with the logical analysis of Meeker & Bonsall based upon Guilford's factors of the intellect, and with Valett's profile analysis.…

Subtests of the two instruments were administered in randomized order to 120 16 year old students. Analysis of variance revealed higher WAIS than WISC Verbal (p is less than .001), Performance (p is less than .01), and Full Scales (p is less than .001) IQs. The WISC and WAIS are not comparable for below average intelligence students. Reprints from…

Evaluates Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) as a rapidly administrable test of intelligence. The PPVT and Doppelt Short Form of the WAIS were given to 150 outpatients. Results suggest clinicians should be cautious in making decisions about patients on the basis of PPVT scores. (Author)

Data from the WAIS, WISC, and WPPSI Standardization samples were used to reappraise validity of all short forms of two, three, four, and five subtests. Results were compared with those given by McNemar's formula. The corrected formula gave lower values and selected "best short forms that differed from McNemar's formula. (Author)

Compared scores of 40 children on the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities when administered by a trained examiner or mechanically administered. The two administrations did not produce significant differences in performance except for the Words and Sentences subtest, which scored significantly higher when administered by examiner. (JAC)

The reliability and stability of the Full Scale IQ scores of retarded adolescents and young adults of three Wechsler Scales were measured. (Author)

Computed confidence intervals for the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised for the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQ scores. Reports IQ intervals for the 85 percent, 90 percent, 95 percent, and 99 percent levels of confidence for each of the nine standardization sample age groups and the entire sample. (Author)

Examined the extent of examiner error during administration of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) by practicing school psychologists and school psychology students eligible for state certification as psychometrists. A number of examiner item scoring and administration errors were observed for numerous subtests. (RC)

Compared regression lines for prediction of Wide Range Achievement Test scores by Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children and revised WISC Full Scale IQs across race. Results support the use of a common regression line in the prediction of achievement scores for races. (Author)
