WAIS-IV Test B

Which of the following WAIS-IV subtests has a highest g loading?

Updating the WAIS-IV's theoretical foundations was achieved by considering the following theoretical constructs EXCEPT

Which of the following WAIS-IV subtests is a CORE subtest that is used to compute FSIQ?

Which WAIS-IV subtest does NOT offer Process scores?

Which index includes the subtests with the lowest loadings on the general (g) factor?

The examiner must memorize all directions in order to administer the test appropriately.

If you find you need to adapt the test to accommodate an individual with special needs, it is better not to administer the test altogether.

Which of these subtests do NOT use a "reverse rule"?

To preserve the balance of maintaining rapport and getting necessary clinical information, it is best to:

Which subtests require the use of a stopwatch?

Unless replacing another subtest, none of the following subtests are used in the calculation of the FSIQ except

At what age can Figure Weights no longer be substituted for other PRI subtests?

What is the mean and standard deviation of scaled scores?

If you forget to administer the Digit Span Sequencing portion of the DIgit Span subtest, you can simply calculate the Digit Span Scaled Score based on the Raw Score sum of Digit Span Forward and Digit Span Backward because that was how digit Span was calculated on previous versions of the WAIS.

Which one of the following WAIS-IV subtests is NOT especially vulnerable to distractibility?

Which of the following WAIS-IV subtests BEST provides clinical information about a person's ability to express his or her ideas in words and to provide possible insight into the persons's fears, guilt, preoccupation, feelings, interests, and cultural background?

Using the WAIS-IV descriptive classification system to describe the WAIS-IV Index scores, a score of 84 should be described as

An abnormally large discrepancy between PRI and VCI means it is

If an individual has WMI less than 85, that person has a possible deficit in

In calculation of an individual's personal strengths and weaknesses in the index or factor profile, you compare each of their interpretable index or factor scores to the person's own mean index or factor score.

What major variable, if left uncontrolled, tends to confound the results of cross-sectional analyses of aging and intelligence (and , therefore, has been controlled in most studies)?

What kind of abilities are fluid reasoning (Gf) and processing speed (Gs) concerning changes in cognitive ability across the life span?

Most researchers on aging and intelligence have documented empirically that speed is responsible for all of the decline that Horn and others have attributed to diminished fluid intelligence.

Which Wechsler scale shows the greatest declines between young adulthood in both cross-sectional and longitudinal studies of aging and intelligence?

What activity in old age has been most associated with maintenance of intelligence in old age?
