Learning Disabled Children's Performance on the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children: A Concurrent Validity Study

Ohio State University

Frederick A. Haddad

Clark County School District, Las Vegas

The aim of this investigation was to determine the concurrent validity of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) with the WISC-R, PIAT, and WRAT. Results indicated a significant difference (t = 2.8, p < .01) between the mean K-ABC Mental Processing Composite (88) and mean WISC-R Full Scale IQ (93) despite significant high correlations among these scores. The mean K-ABC Achievement score (85) did not differ significantly from the average PIAT Total or any of the subtests on the WRAT. Implications of these findings are discussed.
