Abstract
Scores from 26 moderately retarded adolescents were obtained on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) and the PPVT—Revised (PPVT—R). While the scores on the test were correlated .85, the PPVT scores were significantly higher, which is consistent with prior research using different populations including mildly retarded and gifted. Implications for the practitioner are discussed.
