The present investigation compared the North American Adult Reading Test (NAART), Wide Range Achievement Test-3 (WRAT-3) Reading subtest, Barona, and Oklahoma Premorbid Intelligence Estimate Best (OPIE) premorbid intelligence estimates in 64 chronic pain patients across three intelligence ranges. Results for the entire sample revealed that the NAART, Barona, and OPIE Best equations overestimated Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised Full Scale IQ (WAIS-R FSIQ), while the WRAT-3 underestimated FSIQ. When the sample was divided into three intelligence ranges, the OPIE more accurately classified individuals with above average intelligence, while the WRAT-3 more accurately classified individuals with below average intelligence. Three methods (NAART, OPIE, and WRAT-3) provided relatively equivalent classifications of individuals in the average intelligence range. The Barona method tended to systematically under- and overestimate FSIQ across the intelligence continuum. These results suggest the potential utility of using different estimation methods for individuals in different IQ ranges, and speak to the need for development of estimation methods that incorporate current reading ability with best performance and demographic variables.
本研究比较了北美成人阅读测验（NAART）、广泛成就测验第三版（WRAT - 3）阅读分测验、巴罗纳法以及俄克拉荷马病前智力最佳估计法（OPIE）对64名处于三种智力水平范围的慢性疼痛患者的病前智力估计。整个样本的结果显示，NAART、巴罗纳法和OPIE最佳方程高估了韦氏成人智力量表修订版全量表智商（WAIS - R FSIQ），而WRAT - 3低估了FSIQ。当样本被分为三个智力范围时，OPIE能更准确地对高于平均智力的个体进行分类，而WRAT - 3能更准确地对低于平均智力的个体进行分类。三种方法（NAART、OPIE和WRAT - 3）对处于平均智力范围的个体提供了相对等效的分类。巴罗纳法在整个智力连续体上倾向于系统性地低估和高估FSIQ。这些结果表明，针对不同智商范围的个体使用不同估计方法具有潜在效用，并表明需要开发将当前阅读能力与最佳表现及人口统计学变量相结合的估计方法。
