Book Comparative Usage of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Revised and the Stanford Binet Fourth Edition in the Assessment of Mentally Retarded mentally Ill Adults

Download or read book Comparative Usage of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale Revised and the Stanford Binet Fourth Edition in the Assessment of Mentally Retarded mentally Ill Adults written by Amy S. Jahn and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Stanford-Binet IV (SB-FE) and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) were administered to a sample of twenty-one mentally retarded/mentally ill adults who at the time of the testing were inpatients at a large public psychiatric hospital. The Wide Range Achievement Test-Revised (WRAT-R) was also administered to a smaller subset of fifteen subjects. It was hypothesized that there would be a significant disparity between the Full Scale IQ of the WAIS-R and the Composite SAS of the SB-FE. The WAIS-R Full Scale IQ and the SB-FE Composite score were also compared for Caucasian and African-American subjects, with the hypothesis that the two test measures would correlate better for the Caucasian subjects. It was also hypothesized that the Stanford-Binet would correlate better with the WRAT-R than the WAIS-R. Although the WAIS-R Full Scale IQ and the SB-FE Composite score did correlate significantly, at the same time, the SB-FE area scores were significantly lower than WAIS-R IQ scores. The WAIS-R and the SB-FE were found to correlate better for Caucasian subjects than for African-American subjects. The WRAT-R results were found to correlate best with the WAIS-R. These findings are discussed and suggestions for further research in this area are made.

Book Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence

Download or read book Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence written by Alan S. Kaufman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2005-08-05 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic text--now updated with a new interpretive approach tothe WAIS?-III Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence, the classic text fromAlan Kaufman and Elizabeth Lichtenberger, has consistently providedthe most comprehensive source of information on cognitiveassessment of adults and adolescents. The newly updated ThirdEdition provides important enhancements and additions thathighlight the latest research and interpretive methods for theWAIS?-III. Augmenting the traditional "sequential" and "simultaneous"WAIS?-III interpretive methods, the authors present a new approachderived from Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) theory. This approachcombines normative assessment (performance relative to age peers)with ipsative assessment (performance relative to the person's ownmean level). Following Flanagan and Kaufman's work to develop asimilar CHC approach for the WISC?-IV, Kaufman and Lichtenbergerhave applied this system to the WAIS?-III profile of scores alongwith integrating recent WAIS?-III literature. Four appendices present the new method in depth. In addition to adetailed description, the authors provide a blank interpretiveworksheet to help examiners make the calculations and decisionsneeded for applying the additional steps of the new system, andnorms tables for the new WAIS?-III subtest combinations added inthis approach. Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence remains the premierresource for the field, covering not only the WAIS?-III but alsothe WJ III?, the KAIT, and several brief measures of intelligence,as well as laying out a relevant, up-to-date discussion of thediscipline. The new, theory-based interpretive approach for theWAIS?-III makes this a vital resource for practicing psychologists,as well as a comprehensive text for graduate students.

Book excerpt: This volume – now in its second edition – has been completely updated to provide the most comprehensive and accessible handbook of practices and tools for the clinical assessment of child and adolescent intelligence. Designed specifically as a teaching tool, it provides students with an accessible guide to interpretation and applies the same interpretive systems across many tests. It emphasizes the proper interpretation of intelligence tests within the context of a child’s life circumstances and includes several devices to enhance the logical processes of assessment, beginning with test selection and concluding with the reporting of results. In addition, Clinical Assessment of Child and Adolescent Intelligence: - Stresses the importance of the interpretive process over the value of specific tests - Fosters a deeper understanding of the intelligence construct - Emphasizes learning by example, using valuable case studies and vignettes designed to provide students with concrete models to emulate This edition covers all facets of intelligence testing, including detailed explanations of test interpretation, theory, research, and the full-range of testing options for preschoolers through adult clients. New chapters have been introduced on neuropsychological approaches, adolescent and adult intelligence, including coverage of WAIS-III and KAIT, and achievement and intelligence screeners have been added. And although designed primarily as a text for beginning graduate students, the book is also useful as a "refresher" for clinicians who are looking for updated assessment information.
