Title:	Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale – 4th Edition (WAIS-IV)
Author:
Year:	2008
Description:	The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale – 4th Edition (WAIS-IV) is an individually administered clinical instrument designed to assess the cognitive ability of adolescents and adults. This updated version provides subtest and composite scores that represent intellectual functioning in specific cognitive domains, as well as a composite score that represents general intellectual ability (i.e. Full Scale IQ). WAIS-IV scores can be used as part of the Cross-Battery Assessment Software System (X-BASS v2.0)

TRANSCRIPT

A full-scale IQ score of 130 or above on the WAIS-IV will qualify you for Mensa, the high IQ society for people in the top 2% of intelligence. The “low average” IQ range is 80-89, and people in this range will likely struggle with academics. Those scoring in the 71-80 range tend to exhibit what is called “borderline intellectual.

Report the Persons WAIS-IV Standard Scores (FSIQ and Indexes) and Subtest Scaled Scores.

For IQ and indexes, report standard score, confidence interval, percentile rank, and descriptive category. For subtests, report scaled scores and percentile ranks only. (See Rapid Reference 5.2 for descriptive categories.) STEP 2. Step 2a. Determine the Best Way to Summarize Overall Intellectual Ability. To determine whether the FSIQ is interpretable, subtract the Lowest Index from the Highest Index. Is the difference < 23 points? Y or N

Highest Index Standard Scores:

Lowest

Difference =

If YES, the FSIQ may be interpreted as a reliable and valid estimate of a persons overall intellectual ability. Proceed directly to Step 3. Step 2b.

If NO, then proceed to Step 2b.

To determine whether the General Ability Index (GAI) may be used to summarize overall intellectual ability, calculate the difference between the VCI and PRI. Is the difference < 23 points? Y or N

VCI Index Standard Scores:

PRI

Absolute Difference =

If YES, the GAI can be calculated and interpreted as a reliable and valid estimate of the persons overall intellectual ability.

If NO, then proceed to Step 3.

To calculate the GAI, sum 6 subtest scaled scores of the 3 VCI subtests and 3 PRI subtests, and locate the GAI that corresponds to this sum in Table C.1 of the WAIS-IV Technical and Interpretive Manual (Psychological Corporation, 2008, p. 169). Sum of Subtest Scaled Scores = =

Determine Whether the Difference between the Persons GAI and Cognitive Proficiency Index (CPI) Is Unusually Large.

Step 3a. Determine whether the GAI and CPI represent unitary abilities or processes. If you have not already done so in Step 2b,
