Summary

The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale-Revised and the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) were compared using a sample of 26 developmentally disabled children, aged 32 to 73 months. The focus of the study was to determine the feasibility of the K-ABC both for assessment and for planning more effective remediation programs for this group of children. Results revealed that the Stanford-Binet scores were significantly lower than the K-ABC Mental Processing Composite, which is tentatively attributed to the Binet's verbal nature. It is suggested that the K-ABC Mental Processing Scales and the Achievement Scale appear to measure abilities that may not be tapped by the Binet with its high verbal content. It is concluded that the K-ABC could be useful in assessing processing strengths for the developmentally disabled preschool child and could possibly reveal the development and nature of cognitive processing styles if used in a longitudinal design.
