Disparities in Mentally Retarded Persons' IQs Derived from Different Intellignece Tests.
Spitz, Herman H.
American Journal of Mental Deficiency, v90 n5 p588-91 Mar 1986
For mildly and moderately mentally retarded individuals, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised measures at about the same level as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, and, consequently, it also produces much higher IQs than the Wechsler children's scales or the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, Form L-M, despite high intertest correlations.
