Abstract

The Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI; Psychological Corporation, 1999) and the Wide Range Intelligence Test (WRIT; Glutting, Adams, & Sheslow, 2000) are two well-normed brief measures of general intelligence with subtests purportedly assessing verbal–crystallized abilities and nonverbal–fluid–visual abilities. With a sample of 152 children, adolescents, and adults, the present study reports meaningful convergent validity coefficients and a latent factor structure consistent with the theoretical intellectual models both tests were constructed to reflect. Consideration of the hierarchical model of intelligence tests and issues regarding test interpretation are presented.

韦氏智力简略量表与大范围智力测验的结构效度:收敛效度与结构效度

韦氏智力简略量表;心理公司，1999)和大范围智力测验(WRIT;狼吞虎咽(Glutting, Adams， & Sheslow, 2000)是通用智力的两种规范的简短测量方法，其子测试据称评估语言结晶能力和非语言流体视觉能力。本研究以152名儿童、青少年和成人为样本，报告了有意义的收敛效度系数和与两个测试所反映的理论智力模型一致的潜在因素结构。提出了智力测验的层次模型和有关测验解释的问题。
