The Satz-Mogel short form of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale was evaluated for use with older psychiatric inpatients. 57 older patients (— 55 yr.) and 50 younger patients (< 40 yr.) were administered the WAIS. The original WAIS was rescored according to the Satz-Mogel format. Pearson correlations between these two methods within each age group were high for each subtest as well as the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale IQs. Analyses, however, detected significant differences within each age group on some of the Performance subtests. These findings suggest that the Satz-Mogel is an appropriate instrument for use with older psychiatric patients.

We examined cognitive deficits in problematic drinkers with and without mild to borderline intellectual disability (MBID). Problematic drinkers were expected to show a significantly lower estimated performance IQ (PIQ), but not a lower estimated verbal IQ (VIQ), compared to light drinkers. Participants ( N = 474) were divided into four groups based on IQ and severity of alcohol use-related problems. IQ was estimated using (a short form of) the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale third edition. Severity of alcohol use-related problems was assessed using the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test. Overall, there were no significant differences between light and problematic drinkers on estimated VIQ. Within the group without MBID, estimated PIQ was significantly lower. Estimated PIQ was not lower in problematic drinkers with MBID compared to light drinkers with MBID. The results are indicative of cognitive deficits in problematic drinkers without MBID. Screening for cognitive deficits with additional instruments is advised.

40 patients at a psychiatric hospital were tested with the following tests of intelligence: Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS), Raven's Progressive Matrices (PM) and Forms A and B of the Full-Range Picture Vocabulary Test (FRPV). Regression analysis using the WAIS as the criterion and the other two tests as predictors indicated that either Form A or Form B of the FRPV predicted WAIS IQ but the PM did not.

The present study attempted to ascertain the best estimate of true Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) when confronted with an individual who recently had been administered the WAIS-R. Sixty-five college undergraduate participants were administered the WAIS-R twice within 14 days. WAIS-R summary scores, factor scores, and short-form estimates obtained from the second assessment were compared to FSIQ at the first evaluation. The results indicated that Verbal IQ, the Verbal Comprehension factor score, and subtracting 6 points from the current FSIQ are the least affected by repeat assessment and the most accurate estimates of FSIQ at the first evaluation. Use of these estimates of FSIQ are encouraged when evaluating an individual who has been administered the WAIS-R in the recent past.

The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale—Revised were given to 32 general psychology students (16 men, 16 women). All 15 Pearson correlations between the composite and area scores of Binet IV with WAIS—R IQs were statistically significant. Of 5 correlations for subtest pairs of the two tests, 4 (.59 to .86) were statistically significant. Binet IV may be a viable alternative or retest instrument for WAIS—R for use with young adults.
