The Illinois Test of Psycholinguistic Abilities and the 1960 revision of the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale were administered to 40 Caucasian kindergarten children. Two years later the children were tested with the California Achievement Test, Lower Primary Form. The results indicate that the Total Language Score of the ITPA is at least as valid a predictor of school achievement as is the Stanford-Binet IQ. Using stepwise multiple correlation with the ITPA subtests increases the predictive validity of the ITPA. The ITPA has the added advantage of noting specific areas of language deficit so that remedial programs for individual children may be developed.

In this study was compared the relative predictive power of an achievement test and a self-report questionnaire for cognitive abilities in the context of prediction of educational achievement. With average grades, the multiple correlation of scores on both tests administered to a sample of 232 pupils in secondary education showed only marginal differences.

The study was designed to determine the predictive validity of 5 kinesio-perceptual (KP) items (dynamic equilibrium, reaction time, agility, static equilibrium, and KP matching) contained in a test battery (KPT) administered to 120 institutionalized retarded children, chronological ages (CA) 8 to 20 yr. When multiple linear regression analysis was used to predict scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (IQ) the multiple correlation was .75 ( R2 = .57, p = .001). Knowledge of CA and sex added only 1% to the total amount of IQ variance accounted for. A brief discussion of the conflict between the goals of developmental validation and prediction of intellective criteria was also presented.

Kindergarten children ( N = 39) were administered 4 perceptual-motor tests and 2 academic measures in order to assess the relationship among the perceptual-motor tests and between the perceptual-motor and academic tests. Results indicated that the Shape-0 Ball Test and Frostig test were highly correlated and were good predictors of the academic measures. The dynamic balance task (stabilometer) correlated moderately with the Shape-O Ball Test, the Frostig, and the academic criteria. The Oseretsky tests did not correlate significantly with any of the other measures. Stepwise multiple correlation indicated that combining the perceptual-motor tests slightly increased their ability to predict each of the academic criteria.

The predictive validity of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—Revised was examined for a sample of 33 Navajo children in Grades 1 to 6. Test scores correlated .65 and significantly with scores obtained 10½ mo. later on the Peabody Individual Achievement Test Total score. Implications for interpretation are discussed.
