Assessment of Intellectual Functioning Flashcards
What is the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale?
a cognitive ability test designed to assess intelligence in individuals from the age of two through adulthood. The test measures various cognitive abilities such as verbal reasoning, abstract/visual reasoning, quantitative reasoning, and short-term memory. It provides an overall IQ score as well as scores in specific domains.
What is the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-IV)?
The WAIS-IV is an intelligence test designed specifically for assessing cognitive abilities in adults aged 16 to 90 years. It was developed by David Wechsler and has been revised several times. The test consists of various subtests that assess different cognitive domains, including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. The WAIS-IV provides an overall Full-Scale IQ score, as well as separate index scores that reflect performance in specific cognitive domains.
Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-5)?
The WISC-5 is an intelligence test designed to assess cognitive abilities in children aged 6 to 16 years. It is a widely used tool in educational and clinical settings for evaluating intellectual functioning and identifying cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Like the WAIS, the WISC measures different cognitive domains such as verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. It provides an overall Full-Scale IQ score, as well as separate index scores that represent specific cognitive abilities.
What is Sternberg’s typology of love?
a theory that describes different types of love based on three fundamental components: intimacy, passion, and commitment
Intimacy
emotional closeness, connectedness, and mutual understanding between individuals. It involves feelings of warmth, trust, and sharing personal thoughts and experiences.
Passion

Commitment
decision and dedication to maintaining a long-term relationship. It includes the willingness to work through challenges, make sacrifices, and invest in the future of the relationship.
