Overview of the WAIS-5 Webinar (Recording)
Presenter(s): Gail Rodin, PhD
Get an overview of the new WAIS-5, with a focus on features that make it the most comprehensive, reliable, and easy-to-use cognitive ability measure available. Participants will also be familiarized with the benefits related to the normative sample, test structure, administration time, reliability and validity, special group studies, new subtests, and new Primary and Ancillary Index Scores.
The WAIS-5 is the newest revision in the long line of trusted Wechsler instruments to assess cognitive ability and its components in adults ages 16–90:11. It provides a time-efficient way to obtain a Full-Scale IQ, while also allowing the calculation of the same five Primary Index Scores clinicians know from the WISC-V — Verbal Comprehension, Visual Spatial, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory, and Processing Speed — as well as a host of new Ancillary Index Scores.
This webinar will introduce participants to the test’s advantages, including those related to the normative sample, test structure, administration time, reliability and validity, special group studies, new subtests, and new Primary and Ancillary Index Scores.
