The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale—Revised (WAIS-R): factor structure in a U.K. sample
The factor structure of the WAIS-R was examined in a U.K. sample free of neurological, psychiatric or sensory disorder (n = 120). Principal components analysis was performed with varimax rotation. Extraction of 2 and 3 factor solutions were specified a priori. For comparison purposes, the same procedures were followed with the U.S.A. standardisation sample data. Encouragingly for U.K. users of ...
متن کاملScoring reliability on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Third Edition (WAIS-III).
Nineteen psychologists and 19 graduate students scored two Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Third Edition patient protocols. Mean IQs and indexes were similar across groups, but the ranges for Verbal IQ (VIQ), Performance IQ (PIQ), and Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) on one protocol were 25, 22, and 11 points, respectively. For both protocols taken together, percentages of agreement with the "actual" IQs...
متن کاملExploratory and Higher-Order Factor Analyses of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV) Adolescent Subsample
The factor structure of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale–Fourth Edition (WAISIV; Wechsler, 2008a) with the adolescent participants (ages 16–19 years; N 400) in the standardization sample was assessed using exploratory factor analysis, multiple factor extraction criteria, and higher-order exploratory factor analyses. Results from exploratory factor analyses were not included in the WAIS-IV ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the factor structure of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale--Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV): exploratory and higher order factor analyses.
The present study examined the factor structure of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale--Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV; D. Wechsler, 2008a) standardization sample using exploratory factor analysis, multiple factor extraction criteria, and higher order exploratory factor analysis (J. Schmid & J. M. Leiman, 1957) not included in the WAIS-IV Technical and Interpretation Manual (D. Wechsler, 2008b). Res...
متن کاملThe Mahalanobis Distance index of WAIS-R subtest scatter: psychometric properties in a healthy UK sample.
Burgess (1991) has proposed a new index of subtest scatter for the WAIS-R which uses a test statistic, the Mahalanobis Distance (MD). When used with the WAIS-R, MD scores should be distributed as chi square with 11 degrees of freedom. The suitability of the MD index for UK clinical practice was assessed by examining its psychometric properties in a sample of 200 healthy subjects. The sample, wh...
