Harrington, Robert G.; Jennings, Valerie

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v11 n2 p109-16 Apr 1986

Three short forms of the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities (MSCA) have been developed to screen the cognitive skills of young children suspected of learning disorders and developmental delays. Correlations were obtained between scores on the full form of the MSCA and the Kaufman, Taylor, and McCarthy Screening Test short forms. (Author/LMO)
