Abstract

In earlier research, Rossini, Wygonik, Barrett, and Friedman (1994) demonstrated that the Thurstone Test of Mental Alertness (TMA) is a valid, brief measure of intelligence by comparing it to the Wechsler Scale of Adult Intelligence-Revised, which was at that time the "gold standard" of IQ assessment. Since that study, the WAIS has again been revised and reissued in a third edition, the WAIS-III. We assessed the relationship between scores on the Thurstone Test of Mental Alertness and this latest WAIS test to see if there is still a predictive relationship between the two tests. Correlations between the two tests and the accuracy of TMA point estimates of IQ indicate that the Thurstone Test of Mental Alertness remains a viable brief measure of adult intelligence.

摘要

在早期研究中，罗西尼、维戈尼克、巴雷特和弗里德曼（1994年）通过将瑟斯顿心理警觉性测验（TMA）与韦氏成人智力量表修订版进行比较，证明该测验是一种有效且简短的智力测量方法，而韦氏成人智力量表修订版在当时是智商评估的“黄金标准”。自该研究以来，韦氏成人智力量表再次修订并发行了第三版，即韦氏成人智力量表第三版（WAIS-III）。我们评估了瑟斯顿心理警觉性测验得分与这一最新韦氏成人智力量表测验之间的关系，以查看这两项测验之间是否仍然存在预测关系。两项测验之间的相关性以及TMA对智商的点估计准确性表明，瑟斯顿心理警觉性测验仍然是一种可行的成人智力简短测量方法。
