Responses to 3 brief intelligence tests, the Slosson Intelligence Test, the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, and the Draw-A-Man Test, were compared with scores on the Stanford-Binet from 29 Head Start children. Correlations with the S-B ranged from .79 to .64. The Slosson was judged the best brief substitute for the S-B in that it correlated .79 with the S-B and its mean IQ was virtually the same as the S-B mean.
