Interpreting the WISC –V from Dan Miller's Integrated School Neuropsychological/Cattell‐Horn‐Carroll Model

Abstract

This chapter discusses how results from the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth Edition (WISC-V) can be interpreted from a neuropsychological perspective. It reviews which neurocognitive constructs are addressed by these Wechsler products. The chapter ends with a case study example that illustrates how the WISC-V and related products can be used in a pediatric/school neuropsychological assessment. The purposes of the Integrated School Neuro-psychological/Cattell-Horn-Carroll (CHC) Model are to: facilitate clinical interpretation by providing an organizational framework for the assessment data; strengthen the linkage between assessment and evidence-based interventions; and provide a common frame of reference for evaluating the effects of neurodevelopmental disorders on neurocognitive processes. A training clinician should note suspected or known sensorimotor deficits or neuropathological behavior. The WISC-V, used in combination with the WISC-V Integrated, has a good representation of visuospatial measures.
