Examined Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence-Revised (WPPSI-R) profiles of 52 children ages 4½ to 5½, years with Full Scale IQ scores between 127 and 150 for possible ceiling effects. Results show that the [VPPSI-R's ceiling is adequate for assessing the general intellectual ability of all but the very highest functioning children in the age range studied. However, approaching the test's ceiling appears to restrict indices of intraindividual variability such as subtest "scatter" and the difference between Verbal IQ and Performance IQ. Implications for clinicians who assess exceptionally bright preschool children are discussed. |
