چکیده

The research psychologist interested in studying the behavior of neuropsychiatric (NP) patients is almost always faced with the task of eliminating from his study those Ss who may perform poorly, not because of any problems associated with patient status but, rather, because of intellectual deficiency. One very brief self-administered multiple-choice test of verbal intelligence has been developed by Thorndike (1942) and used rather extensively with NP patients. The purpose of this study was to obtain measures of reliability and validity for the Thorndike scale, taking into consideration the possible relationship between verbal intelligence and adequacy of hospital behavior.
