I have a question about the SBV often having super high results with the 5 yr olds. How much is that because the SBV (it seems to me) is most often used by gifted "experts". A child that seems to need testing by a gifted expert at, or before, 5 was maybe always more likely to score high?
That is an interesting question, and good point.
I read a lot of conflicting info about this test. I have read a lot that says that children usually score lower on this test, and the Ruf's levels (as debatable as they are) do have lower thresholds for the SB-V. But then I read a lot on here about the really high numbers for 5 year olds.
I'll be curious to see how my DS does if I retest him with the WISC at some point. He was 4.7 when he tested on the SB-V, I wonder if his score is part of the "5 year old inflation theory."
