Questioning the K-ABC: What Does It Measure?

Keith, Timothy Z.

School Psychology Review, v14 n1 p9-20 Win 1985

Three levels from the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) standardization sample were randomly selected and their subtest score intercorrelations were subjected to factor analysis. The analyses yielded minor inconsistencies which suggest the instrument does not primarily measure simultaneous and sequential processing and achievement as its theory indicates. (DWH)
