The Black-White Differennce on the K-ABC: Implications for Future Tests.
Jensen, Arthur R.
Journal of Special Education, v18 n3 p377-408 Fall 1984
The author examines claims that the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) is less culturally biased than other standard tests of intelligence. He concludes that the diminished Black-White difference for the K-ABC is largely the result of psychometric and statistical artifacts. Implications for future test construction are noted. (Author/CL)
