The Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales: Standard Score Adjustments for Australian Children.

de Lemos, Marion M.

Psychological Test Bulletin, v2 n1 p3-15 May 1989

To develop Australian norms for the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (Survey Form), data for 600 children aged 5-9 years were assessed. Interviews were conducted with 589 of the subjects' parents. Consistently lower scores by Australian children indicated that American norms require adjustment for Australian use. Recommended adjustments are presented. (SLD)
