Wade, H. L.; And Others – Diagnostique, 1988
Forty-eight preschool-age children were administered the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children-Nonverbal Scale and the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI) Performance Scale. Pearson product-moment correlations between the two scales ranged from .59 for a language-delayed group to .79 for the entire sample. Subjects…

Braden, Jeffery P. – American Annals of the Deaf, 1989
A study of 33 elementary/middle school deaf children correlated Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised Performance Intelligence Quotients (IQs) with Stanford Achievement Test-Hearing Impaired Edition (SAT-HI) grade equivalents and age-based percentiles. A second study of 64 children correlated nonverbal IQs from many tests with SAT-HI…

Bardos, Achilles N.; Prewett, Peter N. – Diagnostique, 1991
This study, involving 70 intermediate grade students, found that scores on the Matrix Analogies Test-Short Form (MAT-SF) were significantly lower than all of the Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills (CTBS) composite scores. The MAT-SF correlated significantly with all areas of the CTBS composite and spelling scores. (Author/JDD)

Yewchuk, Carolyn R.; Bibby, Mary Ann – Roeper Review, 1989
Students (N=178, aged 5-20) with severe/profound hearing losses were assessed on giftedness using nonverbal measures of intelligence, teacher nominations, and parent nominations. No statistical correlation was found among the three identification procedures. Teacher-generated characteristics of gifted hearing-impaired children were found to be…

Mills, Carol J.; Tissot, Sherri L. – Gifted Child Quarterly, 1995
The Raven's Progressive Matrices (RPM) and the Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices (APM) were evaluated as possible instruments for identifying academically talented students in minority populations. A significantly higher proportion of minority children scored well on the RPM than on a traditional measure. Issues and concerns about using the…

The Matrix Analogies Test measures nonverbal ability of handicapped and nonhandicapped children, ages 5-17, in a culture-fair fashion. It assesses pattern completion, reasoning by analogy, serial reasoning, and spatial visualization, with a short form available as a screening instrument. This paper describes the test's administration, format,…
