The Davidson-Bruce Word Meaning Test (WMT)
The WMT is an oral test of expressive vocabulary. It has three parts:
  1. Directions for Giving the WMT
  2. The WMT--All Levels
  3. Acceptable Responses for the WMT
Please Note: The reliability of the Davidson-Bruce WMT has not been assessed beyond its correlation of .91 with the DAR Word Meaning subtest, a level that was computed from paired administrations of both tests to 75 adults.
