Abstract
This study examined the concurrent validity of two brief intelligence tests, the Matrix Analogies Test-Short Form (MAT; J. A. Naglieri, 1985a) and the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (K-BIT; A. S. Kaufman & N. L. Kaufman, 1990), with the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III; D. Wechsler, 1991) using a sample of 50 referred students who were attending a large urban school district. The MAT/WISC-III and K-BIT/WISC-III correlations were high and did not differ significantly in magnitude (rs =.67 and.78, respectively). Both screening tests tended to give scores that were significantly higher than the WISC-III Full Scale IQ. Administration time was under 10 min for both screening tests. The MAT and K-BIT appeared to be equally useful as screening tests when the WISC-III was the criterion measure
