- Summary:
-
Research in this effort attempted to review evidence of the construct validity of certain measures of intellectual potential for Canadian native pupils, and to examine the relative predictive validity, over a four-year period, of several measures of general intellectual ability for a sample of Metis pupils at Faust, Alberta, and 2 samples of Eskimo pupils. The measures of intellectual potential identified as having the least amount of cultural bias included Progressive Matrices, Safran Culture-Reduced Intelligence Test, Cattell test of g scale 2, and some subtests of Lorge-Thorndike Non-Verbal Intelligence Tests. Useful predictive validity coefficients between culture-reduced ability tests administered in 1962 and Vernon achievement tests administered in 1965 were reported for the 2 Eskimo samples. For the Metis group, culture-reduced measures did not differ significantly from conventional ability tests. (VM)
