Wisc/Wisc-r comparisons in a learning-disabled population: Equivalence of summary IQ measures

Abstract

Learning-disabled children referred for neuropsychological evaluation were administered either the WISC or WISC-R in order to determine the comparability of the two tests. The results indicated no significant differences between WISC and WISC-R with respect to Verbal IQ, Performance IQ, and Full Scale IQ. Examination of groups of children exhibiting various patterns of Reading, Spelling, and Arithmetic performances on the Wide Range Achievement Test also yielded nonsignificant differences between WISC and WISC-R Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs. These results suggest that the summary IQ scores of these two tests are equivalent for this population.
