摘要

The concurrent validity of the Leiter International Performance Scale (Leiter) and Leiter International Performance Scale–Revised (Leiter-R) was examined in a sample of children with autism who could not be assessed with more traditional measures of intelligence (e.g., the Wechsler scales). The sample consisted of 26 children ranging in age from 4 to 16 years. The correlation between the Leiter scales was high (r = .87), and there was a difference of 3.7 points between the two mean scores, nonsignificant at both statistical and clinical levels. However, significant intraindividual discrepancies were present in 10 cases, 2 of which were both large (24 and 36 points) and clinically meaningful. The mean profile of performance on Leiter-R subtests is also presented for this sample of children with autism, to allow for comparison with other groups. Based on the results of this initial evaluation, together with the current normative data, good psychometric properties, and availability of global and subtest scores with the Leiter-R, the instrument is generally recommended for use with children with autism. However, because of changes in the design of the Leiter-R, there may be greater clinical success with the original Leiter for those children who are very low functioning and severely affected, particularly younger children.
