Comparisons of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—Revised and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Revised were made with 104 children diagnosed as learning disabled and mentally retarded. Significant but modest correlations were found between all but one of the WISC—R scaled scores (i.e., Coding) and PPVT—R standard scores, and between WISC—R IQs and PPVT—R standard scores. Significant differences were found among mean Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs and mean PPVT—R standard scores. The PPVT—R standard scores underestimated WISC—R Verbal IQs by 7 points, WISC—R Performance IQs by 17 points, and WISC—R Full Scale IQs by 11 points.

This study compared scores on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised, Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, and Slosson intelligence test for 64 students (45 boys, 19 girls) who ranged in age from 7–3 to 13–2. Mean IQ on the Peabody was significantly higher than the mean IQ on the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised and on the Slosson. The mean IQs were 95.0 for the Peabody, 89 0 for the Slosson, and 87.8 for the Wechsler Full Scale, with standard deviations of 12.3, 11.7, and 7.0, respectively. Highest correlations of IQs were between Verbal Scale of the Wechsler and the Slosson (.81) and between the Verbal and Performance Scales of the WISC-R (.73).

Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test

The contribution of individual differences in physiological arousal to intellective assessment in learning disabled children was studied. Arousal was measured by salivary response and intellective function (receptive vocabulary) by the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test. It was predicted that best performance would be found at intermediate levels of arousal. Peabody scores of learning disabled subjects of high, middle, and low arousal showed a non-significant trend in the predicted direction. Reasons for the lack of significance of this hypothesized trend were proposed and needed research outlined.

Verbal Performance

To determine the equivalence and relationship of Peabody and WISC scores in a retarded population, 49 students in a class for the educable retarded were tested. The Peabody IQ consistently over-estimated WISC Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs. Intercorrelations between IQs from the two tests were disappointingly low. A more cautious approach to use of the Peabody as a “substitute” measure for the WISC is suggested.

The Relationship

The present study was an attempt at replicating and extending previous findings regarding the development of the concept of death in children. Age, death concept development, general cognitive development, and background/experience variables were investigated with respect to their roles in death concept development. Thirty-two children between six and twelve years of age were given the Derry Death Concept Scale, the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, and selected subtests from the Wechter Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised. Correlations indicated that level of death concept development was related to age and verbal-conceptual mental development. Socioeconomic status and death-related experience did not significantly affect death concept level, nor did gender or separation experience. There were insufficient data to investigate separation effects. Findings from the present study were discussed with respect to their implications for future inquiry.

Comparisons were made between the PPVT-R and WISC-R with 59 school-aged students (25 females, 34 males) referred for academic underachievement. Pearson product moments (r) and related t-tests were employed in the data analysis. The sample ranged in age from 6-2 to 15-5, with a mean age of 10-1, and SD=2.8. There were no significant differences between PPVT-R standard scores and WISC-R IQs. PPVT-R scores correlated significantly (p<.001) with WISC-R Verbal subtest scores. Implications of these findings for the use of the PPVT-R are discussed.

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—Revised, Form L was compared with the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Revised with a sample of 32 mild/moderate handicapped students (24 boys, 8 girls). Significant correlations were found between the WISC—R Full Scale IQ (.46) and the WISC—R Verbal IQ (.50) and the PPVT—R, but no significant correlation was found between the WISC—R Performance IQ and the PPVT—R (.34). Mean scores on the PPVT—R and WISC—R were significantly different.

The 1986 Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—Revised were given to 32 students (16 men, 16 women) in general psychology. The statistically significant correlation of .69 between the two tests suggests the revised Peabody appears to be a satisfactory screening test of intelligence for use with young adults.

Restriction Of Range

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test–IIIA and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—III were given to 35 elementary students ranging in age from 7 to 11.5 years ( M = 8.6 yr.). Correlations of .56 to .88 (corrected for restriction of range) were found between the standard scores of the two tests. The highest correlation (.88) was between the WISC–III Verbal IQ and the PPVT–III, while the lowest (.56) was between the WISC–III Processing Speed and the PPVT–III. More research is needed on the magnitudes of correlation between these tests. As previously noted in the literature, scores of receptive language tests and cognitive tests are not interchangeable.
