The relationship between the K‐BIT, the Stanford‐Binet, a two‐subtest short form, and the K‐TEA was examined with a population of 75 academically referred students. The K‐BIT correlated significantly with the Stanford‐Binet (.81) and the K‐TEA Math (.57), Reading (.58), and Spelling (.47) scores. The mean K‐BIT IQ Composite (76.5) averaged 5.1 points lower than the mean Stanford‐Binet Test Composite (81.6). The results tend to support the use of the K‐BIT as a screening instrument when the Stanford‐Binet is the follow‐up or comprehensive measure of intelligence.
