Abstract

Tested one-, two-, three-, and four-factor models within normal and psychiatric adolescent inpatient groups to confirm the factor structure for the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R). For both samples, the Kaufman three-factor solution had the best overall fit of the WISC-R subtest covariance structure. Other models were less applicable and were eliminated. (TM)
