The Revised Beta Examination (RBE) and the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) were administered to 34 disabled male and female students (ages 15 to 20 years) in a special education rehabilitation unit in western Virginia; a correlation coefficient of .46 was found. It was concluded that since the two tests measured different facets of intelligence (the PPVT is a receptive measure, the RBE an expressive measure) each should be administered as part of a battery and that this would be more economical than administering the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). A significant difference between the mean scores of the two tests was verified through a t test. In making a choice between them researchers and test administrators will want to choose whether they want an expressive or receptive measure of intelligence.
