A Comparison of the Factor Structures of Mental Abilities in Four Ethnic Groups
Hennessy, James J.; Merrifield, Philip R.
Journal of Educational Psychology, 68, 6, 754-9, Dec 76
No meaningful differences were found for four ethnic groups (black, Spanish, Jewish, Caucasian-Gentile) in the factor structures of the CEEB Comparative Guidance and Placement Programs Battery, thus confirming its cross-ethnic factorial validity. Thus it is recommended for use in counseling and placement functions even in institutions having ethnically diverse student populations. (RC)
