Revisión de una prueba psicológica de dominio de vocabulario: escala Bellevue

Abstract

In this article the author shows the results he obtained when revising and adapting the additional test of vocabulary in its form of collective test which Wechsler included in the Bellevue scale to find out the adult intelligence. He does not confine himself to show those results; on the contrary after outlining the problematic about the fundamental criterions of measurement of the vocabulary wealth he interprets the mean and differential values he obtained to continue determining the corelation existing to oter linguistic tests whether intellectual or mnemonic. Through an analytic study Doctor Fernández Huerta reaches the definite test which has a greater internal consistency than the provisional one. That definite test becomes fundamentally integrated by the translation of the most discriminatives original English words.
