A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills you need to confidently administer, score, and interpret the WISC III and WPPSI R

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children Third Edition (WISC III), for ages 6 16 years, and the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence Revised (WPPSI R), for ages 3 7 years, are widely used and globally well known child intelligence tests. In order to use them properly, professionals need an authoritative source of advice and guidance on how to administer, score, and interpret these tests. Coauthored by Alan S. Kaufman, who worked closely with David Wechsler on the WISC R, Essentials of WISC III and WPPSI R Assessment is that source.

Like all the volumes in the Essentials of Psychological Assessment series, this book is designed to help busy mental health practitioners quickly acquire the knowledge and skills they need to make optimal use of a major psychological assessment instrument. Each concise chapter features numerous callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions that help you gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered.

The initial chapters of Essentials of WISC III and WPPSI R Assessment provide step–by–step guidance on test administration, scoring, and interpretation. In the chapters following, the authors provide their expert assessment of the tests’ relative strengths and weaknesses, valuable advice on their clinical applications, and several illuminating case reports.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale–III (WAIS–III) is the most widely used and well known adult intelligence test. A new version of the WAIS–III was published late in 1997, creating a need for a quick and easy guide on administering, and interpreting and reporting on the updated test. The Essentials of WAIS–III Assessment is the first and only book to provide mental health professionals and students with interpretive and administrative guides to the WAIS–III.
