SB5: Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales–Fifth Edition
scores combine to form four types of composite scores: five factor indexes (Fluid Reasoning, Knowledge, Quantitative Reasoning, Visual-Spatial Processing, and Working Memory), two domains (Verbal and Nonverbal), Brief IQ from 2 subtests, and Full Scale (each with scaled score means of 100, SD = 15; range 40–160).
Gale H. Roid AGES: 2 to 85+ TESTING TIME: Approximately 5 minutes for each of 10 subtests ADMINISTRATION: Individual
Two subtests (one verbal and one nonverbal) combine to form each of the five factor index- es. There are two domain scales: Nonverbal IQ (combines the five nonverbal subtests) and Verbal IQ (combines the five verbal subtests). Two initial subtests combine to form the Abbreviated Battery IQ. Finally, the Full Scale IQ combines all 10 subtests.
The Examiner’s Manual provides detailed suggestions for interpretation of sub- test and composite scores, tables of norms, and additional interpretive guidelines. Supplemental interpretive tables and indexes are included in the Technical Manual and Supplemental Interpretive Manual. The scoring software automates the interpretive process by displaying narrative descriptions of scores and graphic profiles, along with identification of significant score differences. STATISTICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SB5 Normative data for the SB5 were gathered from 4,800 individuals between the ages of 2-0 and 85+ years. The normative sample closely matches the 2000 U.S. Census (education level based on 1999 data). Bias reviews were conducted on all items for the following variables: gender, race, ethnicity, culture, religion, region, and socioeconomic status. Additionally, the SB5 was co-normed with the Bender Visual Motor Gestalt Test–Second Edition and linked to the Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievement . Reliabilities for the SB5 are very high. For the FSIQ, NVIQ, and VIQ, reliabilities range from .95 to .98 (average internal consistency composite reliability, across all age groups). Reliabilities for the Factor Indexes range from .90 to .92. For the 10 subtests, reliabilities range from .84 to .89. Extensive validity studies were conducted, including clinical-group differences, corre- lations with other tests, age trends, factor structure, and consequential validity. Many of these studies are presented in the Technical Manual, and others, in the supplemen- tal Interpretive Manual. SUPPLEMENTAL INTERPRETIVE MANUAL The Interpretive Manual provides detailed guidelines for effective interpretation of the SB5 for a number of applications, including its use by psychologists active in school, clinical, and counseling settings. Case studies, profile analyses, and example software reports provide concrete examples of interpretation. This manual also introduces an Extended IQ (EXIQ) scale that supports the calculation of Full Scale IQ scores substan- tially lower than 40 (e.g., to an IQ of 10) or higher than 160 (e.g., to an IQ of 225). COMPLETE SB5 KIT INCLUDES: Examiner’s Manual, Technical Manual, Item Book 1 (Routing Subtest), Item Book 2 (Nonverbal Subtest), Item Book 3 (Verbal Subtest), 25 Record Forms, and Manipulatives, all in a sturdy canvas carrying case.

The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales–Fifth Edition (SB5) has been widely known as the standard for intelligence measurement since 1916. This collection of 10 subtests, providing Nonverbal, Verbal, and Full Scale IQ scores and other diagnostic indexes, offers highly reliable assessment of intellectual and cognitive abilities, based on a large normative sample of 4,800 individuals ages 2 to 85+ years. Under the requirements of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEIA, 2004), the SB5 provides a comprehensive profile of scores to document the cognitive strengths and weaknesses of children, adolescents, and adults with learning difficul- ties, delays, and disabilities. FEATURES AND BENEFITS • One kit covers the full age range of 2 years to 85+ (no second or third kits required). • One half of the test has nonverbal content that requires no (or minimal) verbal responses from the examinee. • Pairs of SB5 subtests measure five cognitive factors (Fluid Reasoning, Knowledge, Quantitative, Visual-Spatial, and Working Memory) more than other competing IQ measures. • The five subtests in the Nonverbal section are useful in assessing individuals with Limited English Proficiency, deaf and hard-of-hearing conditions, nonverbal learning disabilities, ADHD, traumatic brain injury, and autism spectrum disorders. • The SB5 is prominent in the assessment of intellectual giftedness, and extensive high-end items are included to ensure measurement of high levels of gifted perfor- mance. • The SB5 also measures low levels of intellectual functioning because it includes many toys and improved low-end items for better measurement in the low-function- ing range. • Valid measurement of abilities into the elderly years is provided via enhanced assessment of memory. • Modernized artwork and item content are included. • Child-friendly manipulatives make the SB5 a popular choice for preschool testing. SCORING AND INTERPRETATION The SB5 can be hand-scored or scored with the SB5 Online Scoring and Report System . The scaled scores for the 10 subtests are the familiar profile scores used in other IQ measures—with a mean of 10 and standard deviation of 3 (range 1–19). These subtest
