Abstract
The Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) was designed to measure problem-solving skills in a manner not directly related to prior academic achievement. As with any new instrument, it is important to study the relationship of the K-ABC to traditional measures. This study compared the results of the K-ABC to the Wide Range Achievement Test with a nonreferred sample of 40 children. The results suggest for the most part that integrated cognitive processes are related to tasks found in the two achievement tests. Both tests appear to measure different skills, although the reading subtests were substantially correlated.
