This study examined the concurrent validity of the Snijders-Oomen Nonverbal Intelligence Test–Revised compared to the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence–Revised. Subjects were 25 4-yr.-olds of lower, lower-middle, and middle socioeconomic status from both urban and rural areas of Appalachia. The SON–R IQs correlated .93 and .87 with the WPPSI–R Performance IQs and Full Scale IQs, respectively. The correlation of .45 with Verbal IQs was not significant.

Auditory sequential memory subtests of the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence and the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities were administered individually to 20 normal preschool children. Poor performance on the McCarthy words/sentences subtest suggests retention difficulties associated with isolated words in the absence of linguistic context. Correlations of only moderate strength and large unexplained variance indicate poor predictability between subtests despite similarities in content and procedural details.
