Since memory performance expectations may be IQ-based, unidirectional base rate data for IQ-Memory Score discrepancies are provided in the WAIS–III/WMS–III Technical Manual. The utility of these data partially rests on the assumption that discrepancy base rates do not vary across ability levels. FSIQ stratified base rate data generated from the standardization sample, however, demonstrate substantial variability across the IQ spectrum. A superiority of memory score over FSIQ is typical at lower IQ levels, whereas the converse is true at higher IQ levels. These data indicate that the use of IQ–memory score unstratified “simple difference” tables could lead to erroneous conclusions for clients with low or high IQ. IQ stratified standardization base rate data are provided as a complement to the “predicted difference” method detailed in the Technical Manual. (JINS, 2001, 7, 875–880.)

A psychological assessment battery was given ( N = 1011) in a boys' reformatory to evaluate the milieu and the psychological impact of incarceration. Increased incarceration results in greater psychopathology and criminal identification. The continuation of antisocial identification is especially pronounced with boys who have had prior incarcerations. The boys who get into trouble and who are housed in the disciplinary quarters are not the more sociopathic, but instead the more anxious and neurotic boys. Reliability, validity, normative and base-rate data are provided, and methodological implications discussed.
