Test Review: Review of Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test, Second Edition

The Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test, Second Edition (KBIT-2; Kaufman & Kaufman, 2004b) is designed to provide a brief, individualized format for measuring verbal and nonverbal intelligence in children and adults from the ages of 4 years, 0 months through 90 years, 11 months. The test consists of only three subtests. Two are classified as Verbal subtests, and one is classified as a Nonverbal subtest. The KBIT-2 was developed alongside the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second Edition (KABC-II; Kaufman & Kaufman, 2004a) and is primarily associated with the Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) model of assessment and interpretation (Carroll, 1997). According to the KBIT-2 Manual, the entire test can be administered in approximately 15 to 30 minutes. Kaufman and Kaufman (2004b) recommend that the KBIT-2 be used as a screener for intellectual abilities in situations such as identification of children who are at-risk for academic problems, as part of gifted and talented selection (although full-scale assessment may be necessary to fulfill state guidelines), as part of assessment procedures for job applicants, as part of test batteries where the intellectual profile is not the primary concern, for forensic purposes, for re-evaluations, and for various similar circumstances that do not demand full-scale assessment of cognitive ability. The test authors caution against using the KBIT-2 for the purposes of diagnosis or placement, as more comprehensive assessment would most likely be necessary for these purposes. Unlike full-scale intelligence tests, the KBIT-2 is classified as a Level B instrument and may be administered by psychologists as well as by nonpsychologists such as educators and vocational or medical personnel who have received appropriate training and practice. Kaufman and Kaufman justify this recommendation based on the objective scoring elements. The verbal questions require one-word responses, and visual items require only pointing to the correct choice. Interpretation of test results should be carried out by individuals with formal training in assessment. The original KBIT (Kaufman & Kaufman, 1990) contained three subtests: Expressive Vocabulary, Definitions, and Matrices. In revising the test, the test authors decided to drop the Definitions subtest because of its reading requirement, replacing it with the new Verbal Knowledge Subtest, which requires no reading on the part of the examinee and which was deemed to be a cleaner measure of verbal ability. Additionally, the new Riddles Subtest, administered to all ages, was developed to replace the KBIT Expressive Vocabulary Subtest, administered only to
