The WISC‐R, PIAT, and DAM were examined to ascertain relationships among the three instruments. Moderate to high correlations were found when PIAT scores were compared to WISC‐Rg iqs, while DAM standard scores correlated moderately with PIAT and WISC‐R scores. Correlations indicate that information yielded by the PIAT may be obtained through WISC‐R results, while the DAM may be tapping other abilities not adequately assessed by either of the other two measures.
