“…did appear in the Psychological Bulletin articles published between 1945 and 1956 (Rabin, 1945;Rabin & Guertin, 1951;Guertin, Frank, and Rabin, 1956). An examination of the aforementioned review articles indicated that only four studies were published between 1939 and 1955 that compared WBI with WBII (two of these were published between 1945 and 1950, and two, between 1950 and 1955).…”

The issue of the absence of parallel forms for the traditional individual intelligence tests has received little attention in the area of psychological testing ever since the early demise of the Wechsler Bellevue Form II and the delayed discontinuance of Form M of the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale. Five reasons have been presented here to argue that the availability of parallel forms could have both theoretical and practical benefits, especially if the constructors of individual ability and/or achievement tests employ the recent advances in item response theory and computer technology.

“…Currently, hopes for the utility of using pattern analysis as an aid to differential diagnosis have waned. Literature reviews on the subject generally have not been favorable (Cronbach & Gleser, 1965;Frank, 1970; Guertin, Frank, & Rabin, 1956;Rabin, 1965). Matarazzo (1972) concludes that part of the problem has been the use of inappropriate criteria in studies that look for correlates of Wechsler patterns.…”

Heroin addiction and the Wechsler digit span test

There is some evidence that a Wechsler Digit Span scaled score well above the mean of an individual's other WAIS subtest scores is diagnostically significant. Such positive Digit Span scatter seems to be a correlate of an interpersonal detachment syndrome characterized by superficial relationships and anhedonia. Negative scatter or Digit Span scaled scores considerably below the mean of other WAIS subtest scores have been viewed by some investigators as indicating depressive symptoms. Forty‐two heroin addicts were compared with 41 neurotic depressive patients. The former group attained significantly higher average positive Digit Span scatter. Since heroin addicts appear more interpersonally distant and anhedonic for non‐drug‐related experiences, this finding was according to expectation. Digit Span scaled scores alone did not differentiate the groups. Digit Span scatter scores are clearly more desirable than scaled scores in the search for cognitive correlates of personality variables.
