  • Qualification Level: A

The Wiig Assessment of Basic Concepts-Spanish (WABC-S) by WABC author Elisabeth Wiig and noted bilingual author Henriette Langdon, is a valid and reliable instrunment in identifying basic concept deficiencies in Spanish-speaking students ages 3;0 to 7;11 years.

The WABC-S tests 100 basic concepts in Spanish across seven categories:

  • Color/Shape (Color/Forma)
  • Quantity/Completeness (Cantidad/Capacidad)
  • Location/Direction (Ubicación/Orientación)
  • Sensation/Emotion/Evaluation (Sensación/Emoción/Evaluación)
  • Weight/Volume (Peso/Volumen)
  • Condition/Quality (Condición/Calidad)
  • Distance/Speed/Time (Distancia/Velocidad/Tiempo)

What Makes the WABC-S Special?

  • Careful consideration of vocabulary - The WABC-S contains multiple word choices that allow the use of appropriate regional vocabulary from a variety of Spanish-speaking regions (Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, as well as Central and South America).
  • True concept understanding - The WABC-S assesses a child’s understanding of 100 basic concepts. It tests the first concept receptively ("¿Cuál de los osos es grande?" Child points to big bear) and the related/opposite concept expressively ("Este oso es grande y este oso es…" Child says, "chiquito").
  • Age appropriate - The WABC-S contains tests for two age levels. Nivel 1- Un Día en el Zoológico is for preschool children ages 3;0 to 5;11 years, and Nivel 2- Un Día en el Parque is for children in kindergarten and early elementary grades ages 5;0 to 7;11.
  • Valid and Reliable - The WABC-S is a valid and reliable assessment instrument. For the standardization, the population sample included 685 children from the US and Spanish-Speaking countries. The population from the US closely resembles 2000 US Census Data. Test-Retest correlations were very good with r = .97 for Nivel 1 Total Score and r = .93 Nivel 2 Total Score. Inter-rater reliability was also high, where both Nivel 1 and Nivel 2 was r = .97 or higher. In comparison to the Boehm-3 Spanish, we found that both tests examine similar skills (Nivel 1 Total Raw Scores, Pearson’s r = .75 and Nivel 2 Total Raw Scores, Pearson’s r = .73).

    Hello, I knew about the WABC-S test because Rebeca Oved, a therapist that helped with the international testing of the product recommended it. I bought it because I knew it would help me evaluate different basic concepts of young children, and I loved that it not only evaluated the receptive language concepts but it also assessed the expressive ones; as well as giving the norms for ages. I also loved that you guys accepted other responses, for example: if you were assessing the concept "más" it was also accepted that the child's response was: "mucha". However, I sincerely think that it was also important to asses the concept not only in an expressive or receptive way, but in both. For example, you guys could have made more questions in order to have the opportunity to asses one same concept in a receptive and an expressive way; although this would have made the testing take longer. Still I think the WABC-S test is really good as well as easy to apply, something we therapists love.
    Thank, you for accepting my comments.
    Sincerely,
    Marisa.
