    Area of Science:

    • Child Psychology
    • Neuropsychological Assessment
    • Psychometrics

    Context:

    • The Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children-II (KABC-II) is a widely used tool for assessing cognitive abilities in children.
    • Clinical settings often require reliable and valid instruments for accurate diagnosis and intervention planning.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the reliability and validity of the KABC-II in a clinical sample of 646 children aged 7 to 12 years in Germany.
    • To examine the KABC-II's performance across different age groups and diagnostic categories, including developmental, behavioral, and emotional disorders.

    Summary:

    • High reliability (≥ .96) was found for the global scales Fluid-Crystallized-Index (FCI) and Mental Processing Index (MPI).
    • Discriminative validity was confirmed, with expected lower intelligence scores for children with intellectual disabilities.

  • Correlations with other measures (SON-R 2.-7, CBCL/6-18R) supported the KABC-II's convergent and divergent validity.
  • Impact:

    • The KABC-II shows promise as a psychometrically sound instrument for individual clinical assessments in pediatric populations.
    • Findings support the KABC-II's utility in differentiating cognitive profiles across various clinical groups.
    • This study provides valuable data for clinicians utilizing the KABC-II in Germany and potentially other international contexts.
