Product Description

The WISC is the most widely used children's IQ test in the world. This superlative text—replacing the author's earlier volume dealing with the WISC-R— provides examiners with a sensible, systematic method of interpreting WISC-III test profiles. Outlines seven steps which allow examiners to organize these scores in meaningful ways. Enables them to understand a child's specific areas of strength and weakness and to translate these cognitive assets and deficits into appropriate suggestions for intervention. Includes 10 comprehensive case reports to effectively illustrate the procedure, plus numerous valuable tables not found in other publications.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have!, February 11, 2001
By "chrishoyt100" (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
I read Kaufman's book in a graduate class on assessment and intelligence testing. I still refer to it whenever I have unusual test scores with a WISC-III. It explains in a comprehensive and clear manner how a competent psychologist should interpret the WISC-III. It is worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kaufman does it again!, March 9, 1999
By A Customer
Nicely done! A good follow-up to his WISC-R book, this is an enjoyable, in-depth look at something most psychologists don't know enough about.
