WISC-V Assessment and Interpretation: Scientist-Practitioner Perspectives

WISC-V Clinical Use and Interpretation is a singular resource providing users with a basis for understanding and interpreting test results from the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC). WISC is the most widely used intelligence test for children worldwide, assessing giftedness, disabilities, developmental delays, and more. Now in its fifth edition, the test comes with information on proper administration and scoring, but virtually no information on the proper interpretation of results. This book was written by the people who created the test, authors with unique access to norms, data, and inside information. The book describes in detail the new subtests, the revised structure, test extensions, and the resulting issues impacting test selection, interpretation, and clinical applications.
