Essentials of WAIS -III Assessment
Alan S. Kaufman, Elizabeth O. Lichtenberger
Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills you need to confidently administer, score, and
interpret the WAIS-III.
The latest version of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, WAIS-III, which includes
several significant modifications and structural changes, three new subsets, and a variety
of optional procedures, is a more sophisticated and complex instrument than its
predecessors. Professionals who wish to use it properly need an authoritative source of
advice and guidance on how to properly administer, score, and interpret the updated test.
Coauthored by Alan S. Kaufman, who worked closely with David Wechsler on the WISC-R,
Essentials of WAIS-III Assessment is that source.
Like all the volumes in the new Essentials of Psychological Assessment series, this book
is designed to help busy mental health practitioners quickly acquire the knowledge and
skills they need to make optimal use of a major psychological assessment instrument. Each
concise chapter features numerous callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted
points, and extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions that help you to
gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered.
The initial chapters of Essentials of WAIS-III Assessment provide step-by-step guidance on
test administration, scoring, and interpretation. In the chapters following, the authors
provide their expert assessment of the test's relative strengths and weaknesses, valuable
advice on its clinical applications, exciting new research data on aging and IQ, and
several illuminating case reports.
