Abstract

Thirty-one upper-division students from a midwestern university volunteered to take the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised, the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition, and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised. Correlations were calculated between the scores on the three intelligence tests and these students’ reading, mathematics, and writing scores from the Pre-Professional Skills Tests. Correlations between PPST Reading and the three correlations between PPST anintelligence tests ranged from .57 to .68; for PPST Mathematics, .40 to .70; and for PPST Writing, .31 to .63. The moderate d the intelligence tests suggest that the scales of the PPST do not measure unique skills and abilities. The PPVT-R appears to be the best screening and verification instrument.
