Practical, in-depth guidance for WISC-V and WISC-V Integrated
assessment
Essentials of WISC-V Integrated Assessment is the ideal companion for
psychologists and other assessment professionals seeking helpful
interpretive and practical information beyond the WISC-V and WISC-V
Integrated published manuals. Beginning with an overview of the test and
its application to educational intervention, this book provides in-depth
information on new administrative, scoring, and interpretation
procedures specific to the WISC-V and the WISC-V Integrated.
Insider access to the WISC-V and WISC-V Integrated standardization data
allows the reader to derive new WISC-V composite scores unavailable from
other resources. Readers of this book are the first to receive access to
these new composite scores, which are designed to be more appropriate
for children with expressive language difficulties and motor
impairments. The reader also receives exclusive access to four new
WISC-V expanded index scores that provide broader measures of visual
spatial ability, working memory, auditory working memory, and processing
speed.
Significant advances in working memory research demand more
comprehensive assessment of children with a broader range of abilities
and limitations. The reader will learn how to perform a highly
comprehensive assessment of working memory with the WISC-V and the
WISC-V Integrated.
A digital interpretive tool automatically calculates the new composite
scores, completes the relevant comparisons, and generates interpretive
information for new comparisons to streamline the reporting process.
The WISC-V Integrated serves to expand and clarify WISC-V results by
helping practitioners better understand a child's cognitive processes
and the reasons for low or discrepant performance. This book helps
practitioners get more out of the WISC-V and the WISC-V Integrated, with
indispensable guidance and practical tools.
- Understand the WISC-V Integrated and its proper application to the
development of educational interventions
- Learn how administration, scoring, and interpretation has changed for
retained subtests, how to administer and score new subtests, and how
to obtain the first-ever composite scores
- Discover how to use the WISC-V and WISC-V Integrated to assess both
auditory and visual working memory, and how to obtain an unparalleled
and in-depth picture of working memory along a continuum of cognitive
complexity
- Learn how to adjust WISC-V use for children with expressive or motor
difficulties
- Explore alternative composite scoring based on the WISC-V and WISC-V
Integrated standardization data to increase utility for specific
populations
The WISC-V Integrated is an essential component of the WISC-V assessment
process, and Essentials of WISC-V Integrated Assessment is the ideal
guide for practitioners.
