  • Title: The test-retest reliability and stability of the WAIS-R in a sample of mentally retarded adults.
    Author: Watkins CE, Campbell VL.
    Journal: J Intellect Disabil Res; 1992 Jun; 36 ( Pt 3)():265-8. PubMed ID: 1623315.
    Abstract:
    Fifty mentally retarded adults were administered the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) on two separate occasions, with the mean amount of time between testings being 2 years, 8 months. The data were examined in an effort to study the test-retest reliability and stability of the WAIS-R with the mentally retarded. Based on correlational, t-value and percentage of scale score change information, the authors concluded that the WAIS-R IQs appeared to possess good test-retest reliability and stability over an approximate 2.5 year period for the present sample of mentally retarded adults.
