Interpret the WISC V to help diagnose learning disabilities and to
translate profiles of test scores to educational action The
Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children Fifth Edition (WISC V) is
a valuable tool for assessing children and adolescents with
learning disorders and Intelligent Testing with the WISC V offers
the comprehensive guidance you need to administer, score, and
interpret WISC V profiles for informing diagnoses and making
meaningful educational recommendations. This essential resource
provides you with cutting-edge expertise on how to interpret the
WISC V, which has an expanded test structure, additional subtests,
and an array of new composites. Intelligent Testing offers valuable
advice from experienced professionals with regard to clinically
applying the WISC V in an effort to understand a child's strengths
and weaknesses and to create a targeted, appropriate intervention
plan. Ultimately, this book equips you with the information you
need to identify the best theory-based methods for interpreting
each child's profile of test scores within the context of his or
her background and behaviors. Intelligent Testing provides a strong
theoretical basis for interpreting the WISC V from several vantage
points, such as neuropsychological processing theory and the
Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) model, yet it permits you to interpret
children's profiles using simple, straightforward steps. The most
frequently used IQ test in the world, the WISC V (like previous
versions of the WISC) plays an integral role in evaluating children
for learning and intellectual disabilities, developmental and
language delays, and gifted and talented classifications. As such,
understanding how to use the latest version of WISC is extremely
important when assessing children and adolescents ages 6 to 16
years. * Explore all aspects of both the conventional WISC V and
WISC V Digital * Read objective, independent test reviews of the
WISC V from independent, highly-respected expert sources * Review
17 clinical case reports that spotlight experiences of children and
adolescents referred to psychologists for diverse reasons such as
reading problems, specific learning disabilities, ADHD,
intellectual giftedness, and autistic spectrum disorders * Learn
how a broad-based, multi-faceted approach to interpretation that
calls upon several scientific concepts from the fields of cognitive
neuroscience, clinical and school neuropsychology,
neuropsychological processing, and the CHC model, can benefit
children by providing meaningful recommendations to parents,
teachers, and often to the children and adolescents themselves *
Use the results of WISC V as a helping agent to assist in creating
the best intervention plan, rather than allowing test results to
dictate placement or labeling Intelligent Testing with the WISC V
is an indispensable resource for professionals who work with the
WISC V, including school psychologists, clinical psychologists,
educational diagnosticians, and more.
