Abstract

School psychologists are often involved in determining a student’s eligibility for special education services. These services include emotional, learning, and intellectual disabilities. They participate in the evaluation process, in part, by administering assessment instruments. The results from the assessments are used to determine if an individual meets quantitative eligibility under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act. Each of the eligibility areas listed above require the administration of an intelligence test. This study investigates the amount of time school psychologists spend administering the most widely used tests of intelligence. A total of 170 school psychologists attending the National Association of School Psychologists Annual Convention were surveyed. The results indicate the Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale requires the most time to administer, whereas the Universal Nonverbal Intelligence Test needs the lease amount of time.
