Correlational Analysis of MicroCog: Assessment of Cognitive Functioning with the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-III for a Clinical Sample of Veterans.
With rapid advances in technology and an emphasis in efficiency in psychological testing, there is a need to investigate the relation between a computerized cognitive examination and a traditional individually administered intelligence test. The current study provided correlations of intelligence sc...

The current study provided correlations of intelligence scores from MicroCog: Assessment of Cognitive Functioning and intelligence scores from WAIS-III. MicroCog is a single computerized test measuring intelligence and the WAIS-III is a single traditionally administered test measuring intelligence. The study included 30 participants referred for psychological testing at a Veterans Medical Center in Tennessee as part of the standard intake process. Half of the participants were administered MicroCog first and half the WAIS-III first. Analysis indicated scores on the two tests were positively correlated. Index scores measuring similar constructs also were positively correlated. However, MicroCog was significantly more difficult than the WAIS-III in that scores were, on average, lower on MicroCog.
