Assessment of adaptive behavior is still controversial partially because there is disagreement about its relationship to intelligence. Most studies have yielded low to moderate correlations, suggesting these constructs are relatively distinct. The purpose of this study was to examine correlations between the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition, and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Revised. Subjects were 99 children, ages 5 to 19 yr., referred for psychological evaluations of diagnosed or suspected mental handicaps. Correlations between the Vineland and each intelligence test were low to moderate. Present results confirm previous findings and support the conclusion that adaptive behavior and intelligence are separate but related constructs as well as continued inclusion of adaptive behavior in assessment procedures. |
