title: Assessment of three-year-olds with the Stanford-Binet Fourth Edition.
abstract: The Stanford-Binet, Fourth Edition was normed for children 30 months of age and older, but its usefulness with young children (e.g., 36 months) has received little attention. This study of 121 three-year-old children examined possible administration problems, provided correlations with three environmental measures, and compared scores with those of the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test--Revised. Problems of administration did arise on some subtests, correlations with environmental measures were moderate, and scores on the Stanford-Binet IV and PPVT-R were moderately correlated. The Stanford-Binet IV is a useful test in assessment of a broad range of intellectual abilities.
