Summary

Essentials of WPPSI™-IV Assessment

Psychology

Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to expertly administer, score, and interpret the WPPSI-IV

Anyone who assesses young children is familiar with the challenges of obtaining accurate and adequate test data. In Essentials of WPPSI-IV Assessment, the research directors who developed the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence-Fourth Edition offer an insider’s perspective on its conceptualization, development, administration, and scoring. The authors’ flexible interpretive approach describes performance in both normative and intrapersonal contexts and enables interpretive case formulations from multiple theoretical and clinical perspectives.

Designed to help busy practitioners and school psychologists quickly acquire the expertise they need to make optimal use of the WPPSI-IV, each concise chapter features end-of-chapter test questions and Rapid Reference, Caution, and Don’t Forget boxes that are hallmark features of the Essentials series. The authors also include new “Behind the Scenes” boxes that provide unprecedented insight into the test development process.

The website provides helpful tools to enhance WPPSI-IV administration and report writing, interpretive tables, and normative data for a number of index scores not available within the published test. The website also includes the WPPSI-IV Interpretive Assistant 1.0, a scoring software that calculates norms for the additional index scores and walks the practitioner through the authors’ interpretive approach.
