Both the WISC and the WISC-R were administered to 54 children, with one half taking the WISC first and the other 27 taking the WISC-R first. Differences between mean subtest scaled scores and mean IQs were found to be influenced by the sequence of the tests. (Author)

This research addresses the question of the comparability of equal scores on the same test from children in different grades. The results indicate that the scores are comparable, and support the assignment of Iowa Tests of Basic Skills levels that match the child's developmental level. (Author)

It was concluded that the abbreviated WISC-R may be appropriate when intelligence is a question relative to candidacy for therapy or as a noncritical, general indication of intelligence when IQ classification is not important and/or assessment time is limited. (Author)
