This paper presents an overview of the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC) and addresses some frequently asked questions about the new battery. Topics treated include the rationale for the 2½-to-12½-year age range, the predictive validity of the battery, the impact of teaching items on reliability, the Sequential-Simultaneous dichotomy, and the issue of K-ABC versus WISC-R.Keywords
