WAIS
The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS) is a widely used test designed to measure the intelligence of adults and older adolescents. It assesses various cognitive abilities, including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. The WAIS provides a comprehensive evaluation of an individual's intellectual capabilities.
The test consists of multiple subtests, each targeting different aspects of intelligence. Results are typically reported as an Intelligence Quotient (IQ) score, which helps identify strengths and weaknesses in cognitive functioning. The WAIS is often used in educational, clinical, and research settings to better understand an individual's cognitive profile.
