Abstract

The validity of the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale-Fourth Edition (SB-4) and that of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) were investigated with a sample of white and black preschool children from low-income families. The subjects for this study consisted of 89 Head Start children. The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale-Form LM (SB-LM) was used as a criterion measure with which to compare SB-4 and K-ABC scores. Some support was found for the concurrent and construct validity of both new instruments for use with high-risk black and white preschool children. However, further research on the construct and predictive validity of the SB-4 and K-ABC is needed before either is substituted for the SB-LM.
