  • Title: Predicting WRAT scores from the WISC-R for a selected sample of LD children and youth.
    Author: Singer MG, Vance B, Brenner OC.
    Journal: J Clin Psychol; 1983 Sep; 39(5):758-61. PubMed ID: 6630553.
    Abstract:
    Investigated the concurrent validity of the WISC-R 11 subtests and three IQs as related to the WRAT standard scores. Correlations were computed for a sample of 28 children (20 boys, 8 girls), aged 7-9 to 16-5 (means of 11-8), who were diagnosed learning disabled by LEA placement terms according to state and federal guidelines. Regression analysis used all three Wide Range Achievement subtests as criteria, and the 11 subtests and three IQ scale scores of the WISC-R as predictors. The results did not support the concurrent validity of the WISC-R for this sample of disabled children and youth.
