Abstract
To test the efficiency of some commonly used rapid estimations of intelligence with the restricted range of talent represented in the typical college research population, the WAIS and Quick Test were administered to 56 college undergraduates. Additionally, the Shaw and Doppelt short forms of the WAIS were computed, the latter achieving the highest predictive accuracy by correlating .79 with the WAIS Full Scale IQ. The Quick Test attained the highest correlation (.67) with the Vocabulary subtest of the WAIS.Keywords
