The McCarthy Scales and Kaufman's McCarthy Short Form Correlations with the Comprehensive Test of Basic Skills.
Valencia, Richard R.
Psychology in the Schools, v21 n2 p141-47 Apr 1984
Examine the predictive validity of Kaufman's short form of the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities for 74 Mexican-American children. Comparisons between the McCarthy General Cognitive Index (GCI) and Kaufman's estimated CGI with academic achievement showed that the conventional McCarthy and Kaufman's short form predicted achievement about equally well.
