Compared IQ estimates based on the Oklahoma Premorbid IQ Estimation (OPIE) regression formulas, which combine both demographic and performance variables, and the North American Adult Reading Test (NAART) to actual IQ scores on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) for a mixed group of Anglo and Hispanic subjects. Subjects were 56 volunteer psychology undergraduate and graduate students (33 Anglo/23 Hispanic), and were administered the WAIS-R, NAART, and the Wide Range Achievement Test-3rd Edition (WRAT-III). Demographic data included age, education, occupation, race, current grade point average and ACT/SAT/GRE scores where available. A significant difference was found between the mean actual IQ score of the Anglo (104.97) and Hispanic groups (96.95), and significant differences in the prediction of premorbid IQ were found between Anglo and Hispanic populations using both the OPIE and NAART prediction formulas. Results indicate that premorbid IQ prediction formulas may overestimate actual IQ in normal populations. Implications for the use of premorbid IQ estimation formulas with non-Anglo populations are also discussed.

Scale construction and validation were carried out using seven independent samples with over 2000 participants aged 18-55 in Croatia and the US. Reliability of the New Sexual Satisfaction Scale (the NSSS; k=20) was satisfactory in all samples and construct validity was confirmed in both cultures. The NSSS was also found to have acceptable one-month stability. A short version of the scale (k=12) demonstrated reliability and validity comparable to the full scale. It is suggested that the NSSS is a useful tool for assessing sexual satisfaction regardless of persons's gender, sexual orientation, and relationship status.

Unlike the majority of similar measures, the NSSS is not ...

It was Erik-son (1968) who first gave prominence to the belief that the primary work of adolescence was to develop a stable sense of identity. While Erikson believed that the ...

This study sought to investigate patterns in HIV/AIDS related knowledge, attitudes and sexual behaviour in migrant workers in Croatia. In 2003, 566 male migrant workers were recruited during regular required medical examinations and surveyed at seven locations throughout the country. Each participant was asked to complete a self-administered KABP (sexual knowledge, attitudes, beliefs and practices) questionnaire. The average age of respondents was 38.2 years and the majority worked as seafarers (77.3%) and construction workers (20.5%). Only 18.5% of respondents were able to correctly answer all 13 questions assessing knowledge of HIV/AIDS. Seafarers reported higher levels of knowledge than did construction workers. The average respondent reported having had two sexual partners in th...
