Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC)

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) is an assessment tool designed to measure a child's intellectual abilities. It evaluates various cognitive skills, including reasoning, problem-solving, and verbal comprehension, through a series of age-appropriate tasks. The WISC produces a Full Scale IQ score, which helps identify a child's cognitive strengths and weaknesses, aiding in educational planning and support. It is widely used by psychologists and educators to better understand a child's learning potential and to guide interventions if needed. The latest version is designed for children aged 6 to 16 years.
