Correlates of the Woodcock-Johnson Reading Comprehension and Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test in a forensic psychiatric population.

This study assessed the intellectual status of lower-functioning incarcerated adult males with the Woodcock-Johnson Reading Comprehension subtest and the Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test. The results of this study have led the authors to argue for a broad-based assessment model that focuses on the demands and constraints of the dispositional setting.
