WISC-V - CORRECT ANSWER - administers comprehensive instrument for assessing
the intelligence of children aged 6 years through 16 years and 11 months
Utility of Wisc-v - CORRECT ANSWER - 1.Psychoeducational tool used to asses
intellectual functioning
,2. Used to idenitify intellectuall giftedness, intellectual disability, and congitive strengthns and
weakness
3. The WISC-V is a necessary and sufficient condition for diagnosing an intellectual disability
4.Used to provide differential disorder between nueorlogical and psychricatric disorders
Result from the WISC-V are used for - CORRECT ANSWER - 1. Guide for Treatment
planning

information for neuropsychological evaluation and research purposes
Testing Children at Exterme Ages - CORRECT ANSWER - Examiner assessing children
at ages 6 or 7 OR 16 may be have the option of choosing age appropriate measures for child.
Children are suscepted to have below average cognitive ability should be assed with the WISC-
IV
Children with a suspected have above average cognitive aboitl should be assessed with WISC-V
and WPPSI-IV using judgement of practitioner.
Testing Children for Re-Evaluation purposes - CORRECT ANSWER - Using the same
instruments for re-test results in practice effects in which the child remembers the test
Research has shown that several subsets such as math, digit span, and letter numbering
sequencing of the WISC-V is minimized by practice effects after 1 year
Transaltion substest designed to measure memory, may produce longer lasting practice effects.
,Testing Children with Special Needs - CORRECT ANSWER - Examinees should not
attribute children low score on test to intellectual ability because the low performance could be
attributed to physical, language, or sensory limitations
Ex: a child with severe motor impairment would most likely obtain low score on subtest that
require fine motor skills like block designs under time constraints
Children with limited proficient in english or language impairment should be given the WISC-IV
to reduce the effects of language on composite score
Structure of WISC-V - CORRECT ANSWER - the WISC-V offers two to four subtests
with distinct formats for each of the six broad abilities (i.e., Gc crytalized intelligecne , Gv, Gf
fluid resaoning, Gsm memory span, Gs, Glr long term retrival and storgage )
six broad abilities wisc-5 measures - CORRECT ANSWER - (i.e., Gc crytalized
intelligecne , Gv general and vison, Gf fluid reasoning, Gsm memory span , Gs processing speed,
Glr longterm storgage and retrival)
