Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the reliability of the experimental version of the Spanish translation of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Revised (WISC—R; EIWN-R) with a group of children in elementary school in Puerto Rico. The test was administered to a group of 51 subjects in grades 4 and 5. A summary of the items showed that in all the subtests the items were generally ordered from less to most difficult. Correlations between all subtests and the Verbal, Performance, and Full Scale scaled scores ranged between .20 for Arithmetic and Picture Completion to .94 between the Verbal and Full Scales. Alpha coefficients of reliability ranged from .53 for Arithmetic to .80 for Vocabulary. Test-retest correlations for Coding and Digit Span were .70 and .78, respectively.
