  2. Visual spatial index (VSI)
  3. Fluid reasoning index (FRI)
  4. Working memory index (WMI)
  5. Processing speed index (PSI)
27
Q

Working memory index on WISC-V consists of?

A

Digit Span

Picture Span

28
Q

A

Figure Weights

Matrix Reasoning

29
Q

Visual spatial index on WISC-V consists of?

30
Q

Why report General Ability Index (GAI)?

A

Less sensitive to influence of WMI and PSI than FSIQ;

Could provide a more valid score for individuals with learning or neuropsych or memory issues
