24 children surgically treated for pathology of the middle ear and 24 matched control children having histories without problems with ears or school were compared on the Slosson Intelligence Test, Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, the Block Design subtest of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Form R, the Spelling subtest of the Wide Range Achievement Test, the Spelling and Reading Recognition subtests of the Peabody Individual Achievement Test, and the Goldman-Fristoe-Woodcock Test of Auditory Discrimination. The surgical group scored similarly to the control children on six of the eight tests, but significantly lower on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Block Design subtest of the Wechsler scale. Longitudinal research comparing similar groups of children is recommended.

Children in regular Grades 4 and 5 were given the WISC and WISC-R, in counterbalanced order, along with the Wide Range Achievement Test. Correlations were computed among all major subscales. WISC IQ averaged five points higher than WISC-R. The two scales intercorrelated (.61 to .85) at significant levels. WISC and WISC-R correlations with the Wide Range Achievement Test were similar, with WRAT correlation slightly larger with the WISC than WISC-R.

Wide Range Achievement

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test correlates significantly with language ability (Teasdale, 1969) and reading achievement of children of lower socio-economic status (Hall, 1970). The need to develop measures of reading achievement for children with severe difficulties in spoken language (deaf and aphasics) suggested to us the possibility of modifying the Peabody to assess reading recognition of single words by such children. To obtain an estimate of the correlation between the Peabody as a reading test and the Wide Range Achievement Test (Jastak, 1965) 38 children with a MCA of 9 yr., 5 mo. and a MIQ of 103.9 were tested. They had been referred for evaluation of suspected learning disabilities. Target words from the Peabody were reprinted in enlarged type and presented visually to Ss who indicated their knowledge of each word by pointing to the appropriate picture. Standard Peabody basal and ceiling scoring criteria were used. The Wide Range Achievement Test was administered in standard form as an oral word-recognition test.

Wide Range Achievement

This study investigated the relationship between the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Revised and the Wide-Range Achievement Test for a selected sample of 36 young children. There were 21 boys and 15 girls whose chronological ages ranged from 6-0 to 9-6, with a mean age of 7-3. Pearson product-moment correlations were obtained between the measures and t tests for independent means were computed. Regression analyses used all three Wide-Range Achievement subtests as criteria and the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs of the WISC-R as predictors. The results support the concurrent validity of the WISC-R.

Wide Range Achievement

Data from the National Health Examination Survey (cycles II and III) provided a representative sample of 13,887 US youths (6 to 17 years of age) with which to examine the relationship between height (normalized for age and sex) and measures of intellectual development (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children) and academic achievement (Wide Range Achievement Test). Additionally, 2,177 subjects were studied first in cycle II and 2 to 5 years later in cycle III, forming a well-selected longitudinal study group in which to examine any association between linear growth and change in IQ scores. Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children and Wide Range Achievement Test scores were significantly correlated with height in both cycle II and cycle III. However, no significant association between change in relative height and change in IQ scores could be detected in the longitudinal group. These data suggest that therapies designed to increase height are unlikely to alter measures of intellectual development or academic achievement.
