Study involving 300 children investigated the validity of Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT) for identifying learning disabled kindergarteners. Ss were given a battery of tests, including Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence. Results indicated that SIT greatly overestimates the IQ of kindergarten children with suspected learning…

Compared the abilities of the most recent editions of the Henmon-Nelson and the Slosson tests to estimate Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (Revised) scaled scores and intelligence quotients. The Henmon-Nelson's validity coefficients were higher than their counterparts for the Slosson, but the Slosson had a higher ceiling and a lower floor.…

The author reviews and expands the work of J. Boyd (EC 062 111) on the use of the Slosson Intelligence Test scored according to Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children categories for children who may need special education. (CL)

Evaluated the validity of the Slosson Intelligence test as determined by the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R). Results indicated that the Slosson correctly predicted functioning level to within 10 IQ points of the WISC-R Full Scale scores for 88 percent of the subjects. (LLL)

All variables except the Slosson Intelligence Test were poor predictors of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (Revised) intelligence scores. A moderate correlation was found between verbal and full scale IQ scores and a lower relationship between performance IQ scores on the two scales. Results may be culture specific. (Author/JAC)

This study attempts to respond to the suggestions of Stewart and Jones and the criticisms of Sattler and Buckhalt by assessing the precision of the Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT) in predicting Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) scores with a population of restricted range (gifted children), and examining the consistency of…

This report presents a description of the Structure-Process approach to cognition and literacy, suggests techniques for implementation of the model, and assesses the effects of the model on a specific population. The Structure-Process approach assumes that intelligence develops cumulatively. The model was used for curriculum development in four…

Examined whether Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised and the Slosson Intelligence Test could be used interchangeably for identifying gifted students or if the Slosson should be used as a screening instrument in the process of screening and identification in students (N=38) identified as potentially gifted. Results indicated tests…

Examines the concurrent validity of the Slosson Full-Range Intelligence Test (S-FRIT) by comparing S-FRIT scores to the scores of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III) and the Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievement-Revised (WJ-R). Results revealed that the S-FRIT scores were more related to overall intelligence,…

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised, the Slosson Intelligence Test, and the National Education Development Test were administered to a small sample of private school children ranging in age from 12.3 to 14.1 years. Correlations among these measures were moderate to high. (JKS)

The present study examined long-term relationships among the SIT, the Stanford-Binet, L-M (SB) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). (Author)

When developing efficient treatment plans for a client or student, professional counselors frequently rely on information about intellectual ability. The Slosson Intelligence Test-Primary (SIT-P; Erford, Vitali, & Slosson, 1999) is an expansion of the Slosson Intelligence Test-Revised (SIT-R; Nicholson & Hibpshman, 1991) and includes a…

Ten years of validity research concerning the Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT) is reviewed. The equivalence of the SIT to the Stanford-Binet and the Wechsler Scales is examined and the relationship of the SIT to achievement measures is described. (Author)

The use and validity of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Slooson Intelligence Test as screening devices when compared to the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children was studied in 36 mentally retarded adolescents. (Author)

Investigated use of revised Slosson Intelligence Test (SIT) for screening public school students (N=131) for giftedness. Found revised SIT intelligence quotient (IQ) mean to be significantly lower than old ratio SIT IQ mean, significantly higher than Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised and Stanford-Binet means. Advises caution in…
