Construct Validity of the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities: Regression Analysis with Preschool Children.
Watkins, Ernest O.; Wiebe, Michael J.
Educational and Psychological Measurement, v40 n4 p1173-82 Win 1980
A sample of preschool children was used to assess the construct validity of each of the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities (MSCA). Clinical interpretation of the General Cognitive Index (GCI) may be warranted, but diagnostic use of the Memory or Motor Scales with preschool children should be avoided. (Author/GK)
