4.0 out of 5 stars New WPPSI, October 21, 2010
This review is from: Essentials of WPPSI-III Assessment (Paperback)
I purchased the new WPPSI-III. The WPPSI-III is different from the WPPSI-R. The book Essentials of WPPSI-III Assessment helped me to understand the differences in the subtests and the differences in administration. Also, the book helps in analysis of the scores. Perhaps the best thing about the book is that it written in clear language without too much jargon. There are summaries throughout the book that make finding information easy.
