The WISC-R and the Fourth Edition of the Stanford-Binet (SB: FE) were compared in the identification and assessment of 48 intellectually gifted students in the primary and secondary grades. While only a 3.2-point difference between the mean SB: FE Composite score and the mean WISC-R Full Scale score was found, (r= .393, p. s .Ol), the t test between the two scores was significant (t=2.30, p s .05). Correlations between the three scales of the WISC-R and the SB: FE four broad area and Composite scores ranged from -.219 (SB: FE AbstractNisual Reasoning with WISC-R Verbal) to .599 (SB: FE Short-Term Memory with WISC-R Full Scale). Within the correlational matrix, only 5 of the 15 correlations were significant. Both the SB: FE AbstractNisual Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning Area scores had no significant correlations with any of the WISC-R scores.
