LRNI. Finally, a correlational analysis was conducted between the Broad Cognitive
Ability (BCA) scale from the WJTCA-R and the General Memory Index (GENI) from the
WRAML. A high positive correlation (r = .87) was found between these most global
measures from the two batteries. The observed correlation between BCA and GENI was
much higher than anticipated. The author concluded that neurological impairment had
affected subject memory and intellectual functioning in similar ways. The results do not
generalize to children who have not had similar decrements in cognitive functioning.
Future research should establish a baseline correlation between the two instruments with
a non-impaired population.
