Scoring & interpretation
Scores are calculated for several indexes, such as the Verbal Comprehension Index, the Fluid Reasoning Index, the Working Memory Index and the Processing Speed Index. These indexes are then combined to produce a Full Scale IQ score, which is compared with established norms to provide an assessment of the child's cognitive abilities relative to their peers.
