  • Title: Relationship of scores on PPVT-R and WISC-R with special education children and youth.
    Author: Candler AC, Maddux CD, Johnson DL.
    Journal: Percept Mot Skills; 1986 Apr; 62(2):417-8. PubMed ID: 3503246.
    Abstract:
    Comparisons of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised were made with 104 children diagnosed as learning disabled and mentally retarded. Significant but modest correlations were found between all but one of the WISC-R scaled scores (i.e., Coding) and PPVT-R standard scores, and between WISC-R IQs and PPVT-R standard scores. Significant differences were found among mean Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs and mean PPVT-R standard scores. The PPVT-R standard scores underestimated WISC-R Verbal IQs by 7 points, WISC-R Performance IQs by 17 points, and WISC-R Full Scale IQs by 11 points.
