I always assumed that the scale for the normed scores had been chosen to correspond with the older version of the test. But it was just that - an assumption. I know that super high numbers were more common with the ratio IQ tests, but I ASSumed that when you got closer to the middle of the distribution they were strongly correlated. is that completely wrong? Is there a table somewhere?
