Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence (3rd ed)

"Assessing Adolescent and Adult Intelligence, Third Edition" features comprehensive coverage of clinical and neuropsychological assesment, focusing on the WAIS III, but also covering the WJ IIITM, the KAIT, and several brief measures of intelligence.

The 2005 release of this popular text now has an alternative interpretive system for the WAIS III that integrates normative assessment (performance relative to age peers) with ipsative assessment (performance relative to the person s own mean level), which draws heavily on Cattell Horn Carroll (CHC) Theory.Three new appendices include the alternate interpretive system, which is intended to supplement the interpretive approach already covered in the book; a blank interpretive worksheet to permit examiners to conduct all of the calculations and decision making that is necessary to apply the seven steps of this new system to the WAIS III profiles of the people they test; and norms tables for new combinations of WAIS III subtests that are incorporated into the new interpretive system.
