Advanced Applications of Theory to Family Law Practice
I commonly define intelligence as measuring how big the cup is and
achievement as measuring how full the cup is. In the odd case where
parents are contesting custody and both intend to home-school their
children, achievement testing (e.g., the Wide Range Achievement Test-
third edition [WRAT-3]) might be weakly relevant, so as to assure that
the contending parents had mastered the curricula that must be taught
but of arguably equal or greater relevance would be the quality of each
parent’s lesson plans, his/her experience as an educator, the child’s
history of achievement in their respective tutelage, compliance with
state regulations, and a host of other (nonpsychometric) measures.
