The equivalency of standard and Satz-Mogel WAIS scales for psychiatrically hospitalized geriatric patients was explored further in a followup study using a repeated measures design. The two WAIS forms were found to be closely equivalent in test-retest reliability and to have highly similar means and standard deviations. Strong support was given to the authors' prevous conclusion that the Satz-Mogel short form of the WAIS may be used interchangeably with the standard WAIS in the clinical assessment of geriatric subjects hospitalized in public psychiatric institutions.
