This quantitative study examined the concurrent and construct validity of the Comprehensive Test of Nonverbal Intelligence (CTONI) and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Fourth Edition (WISC-IV). Forty students previously classified as educable mentally disabled (EMD) comprised the sample. WISC-IV Full Scale and CTONI Nonverbal IQ scores were compared with each other and the previously administered WISC-III, using correlations and dependent t tests. Practical validity was established by determined the percentage of previous eligibility decisions that were confirmed by the WISC-IV and the CTONI. Because the WISC-III and WISC-IV were not significantly different and correlated at .91 when adjusted for restricted range, the validity of the WISC-IV was established for use in eligibility decisions of students classified EMD in the target county. Similar validity for the CTONI was not established. Concerns were raised regarding adequacy of the nonverbal instrument's floor, especially in the area of analogical reasoning. Performance on the categorical subtests by the sample suggested a possible area of relative strength. The study should be replicated with larger samples across a wider geographical region in order to generalize the findings. Similar studies were called for using other nonverbal measures of intelligence or representing students with other disabilities. Revision of the CTONI was recommended to extend the floor downward.
