“…The majority of research involving this test focused on the ability of the WPPSI to predict learning and/or reading problems. Hagin, Silver, and Corwin (1971) studied 30 children for whom learning problems were predicted and found that their three WPPSI IQ Scores were significantly lower than those of the "normal group." Another popular area of research on the WPPSI has been the regrouping of subtests for clinical analysis (Badian, 1984; Michayluk, 1981; Reynolds & Gutkin, 1981).…”

This study compares three different measures of intelligence used with preschool children identified "at-risk.'' Seventy preschoolers were administered the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Revised, and the Expressive One-Word Picture Vocabulary Test. The sample consisted of 21 girls and 49 boys, of which there were 30% Orientals, 3% White, 20% Black, and 7% Native Americans. Pearson's product-moment correlation was used to analyze the data. Correlated t-tests were used to calculate the differences between the mean IQs for the tests. The PPVT-R and EOWPVT were found to be significantly correlated with the Verbal and Full Scale IQ scores of the WPPSI. In addition, the PPVT-R and EOWPVT correlated significantly with the Performance Scale
