See also: Validity (statistics)In an article written in Psychological Reports T. Matthews and Kerry Lassiter report that the Wonderlic Test "was most strongly associated with overall intellectual functioning," which is what it is purported to measure. However, Matthews and Lassiter did not find the Wonderlic to be a successful measure of fluid and crystallized intelligence, and they stated that "the Wonderlic test scores did not clearly show convergent or divergent validity evidence across these two broad domains of cognitive ability." In academic testing, the Wonderlic Test has shown high correlations with aptitude tests such as the General Aptitude Test Battery.
