The aim of this study was to develop a way of estimating Wechsler IQs from demographic measures. The three summary IQs of the 19SS WAIS standardization sample were regressed on age, sex, race, education, and occupation. The resulting R"s were .S3, .42, and .54 'for the Verbal IQ, Performance IQ, and Full Scale IQ, respectively. The three regression equations provide actuarial indices of IQ that can 'be used as estimates of premorbid ability in neuropsychological assessment and research.
Using descriptive statistics and confidence intervals, the authors investigate and determine how estimates for development budgets vary from the actual development budgets over time for Defense Department space programs.
To explore the relationship between vandalism, college residence hall
size, and a number of social factors, 688 college students completed
the Core Alcohol and Drug Survey (Presley, Meilman, & Lyerla,
1994), the University Residence Environment Scale (Moos, 1988),
and answered questions about their television habits and athletic
participation. Vandalism costs came from college repair records. Larger
residence halls, those with more TV viewing, more freshmen, and less
student involvement were likely to have higher vandalism costs.
