Shipley-Hartford and Wechsler-Bellevue Intellectual Functioning: A Selection Screening Approach

Abstract
Shipley-Hartford (SH) and Wechsler-Bellevue (WB) scores were compared for a random group of psychiatric patients. It was found that the SH serves as an extremely accurate screening test for selection decisions (rather than classification decisions) since all subjects obtaining at least an Average SH IQ achieved the same or a higher level on the WB. The importance of the SH as a rapid and accurate intellectual screening instrument is discussed with reference to military, industrial, trade school, and hospital settings.
