SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
In this guide to the popular cognitive assessment tool, Flanagan (psychology, St. John's U.), Kaufman (psychology, Yale U. School of Medicine) and contributors describe its use with children ages six to 16, including instructions on administering, scoring, and interpreting it. They discuss steps to take in administering the test to children who are learning or physically disabled and/or gifted, as well as to culturally/linguistically diverse populations. Appendices include data to use in assessment. The WISC-IV is the top intelligence assessment instrument for children in the US, providing essential information into a child s cognitive functioning. Essentials of WISC-IV Assessment with CD-ROM, Second Edition presents professionals with step-by-step instruction on scoring and interpreting this test. Thoroughly updated, the new edition is now packaged with a CD-ROM for interpreting and scoring the WISC-IV. In addition, each chapter has been fully revised. Anyone involved in the psychological testing of children, specifically school psychologists and clinical psychologists, will benefit from this popular measure of intelligence.
