Middle Socioeconomic Status

The hypothesis that 20 young children from a middle-SES school would score higher in verbal intelligence assessed by the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test than 20 young children from a low-SES school was not supported. Data showed that racial differences existed in the verbal intelligence of these kindergarteners in a school undergoing racial integration. This finding deserves consideration in programs of rapidly integrating schools and neighborhoods.

Iq Scores

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test and the Columbia Mental Maturity Scale overestimated seriously the prevalance of retardation in 28 poverty-area kindergarten-age children. Statistically significant differences were found between the mean IQ scores on those two tests and Stanford-Binet IQs. Less severe differences obtained for 29 Ss enrolled in a poverty-area first-grade.

Environmental Measures

The Stanford-Binet, Fourth Edition was normed for children 30 months of age and older, but its usefulness with young children (e.g., 36 months) has received little attention. This study of 121 three-year-old children examined possible administration problems, provided correlations with three environmental measures, and compared scores with those of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test—Revised. Problems of administration did arise on some subtests, correlations with environmental measures were moderate, and scores on the Stanford-Binet IV and PPVT—R were moderately correlated. The Stanford-Binet IV is a useful test in assessment of a broad range of intellectual abilities.

Disadvantaged Preschoolers

A group of 78 disadvantaged preschoolers was given the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT). Despite the significant correlations between the WISC and PPVT IQ scores, comparison of the scores for each child showed little agreement on gross classifications of intelligence. In general, the PPVT IQ scores tended to underestimate the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQ scores of the WISC and to overestimate the incidence of mental retardation. It was concluded that testing young children with the PPVT as the measure of intelligence is of dubious value for research and clinical applications.
