BROADS
The broad ability associated with visual processing
What is GV?
The ability to observe a phenomenon and discover the underlying principles or rules that determine its behavior. This ability is also known as rule inference.
What is Induction? (Gf Narrow)
The speed, fluency and accuracy in manipulating numbers, comparing number patterns, or completing basic arithmetic.
What is Number Facility (Gs Narrow)?
An individual has a Superior VCI and all other indices are Average, can the FSIQ be utilized to interpret the cognitive abilities?
How about no? What is non-unitary?
The broad ability associated with auditory processing (hint only the WJ measure this ability).
What is Ga?
The ability to remember narratives and other forms of semantically related information.
What is Meaningful Memory (Glr Narrow)?
The ability to rapidly produce words that share a phonological (e.g., fluency of retrieval of words via a phonological cue) or semantic feature (e.g., fluency of retrieval of words via a meaning-based representation).
What is Word Fluency (Glr/Gc Narrows)?
An individual scored a 10 on Information and a 2 on Similarities. Name the two narrow abilities for each and any potential reasons for the difference between the subtests.
What is General Verbal Info and Lexical Knowledge?
What is reasoning with verbal information?
The broad ability associated with short term memory
What is Gsm/Gwm?
The ability to perceive complex visual patterns and mentally simulate how they might look when transformed (e.g., rotated, changed in size, partially obscured, and so forth).
What is visualization (Gv Narrow)?
The ability to quickly identify and access a familiar, meaningful visual object stored in long-term memory from incomplete or obscured (e.g., vague, partially obscured, disguised, disconnected) visual cues of the object without knowing in advance what the object is.
What is Closure Speed (Gv Narrow)?
MR = SS - 15, FW = SS - 8, name the two narrow abilities associated with each, and if these scores are unitary, if not why?
What is greater than 5 apart? What is Induction and General Sequential Reasoning?
The broad ability associated with crystallized knowledge? (Hint it increased with age)
What is Gc?
The knowledge of the definitions of words and the concepts that underlie them. Vocabulary knowledge.
What is Lexical Knowledge (Gc Narrow)?
The ability to reason with quantities, mathematical relations, and operators.
What is Quantitative Reasoning (Gf Narrow)?
Digit Span was a 15, Arithmetic was a 10, two narrow abilities and differences as to why scores are non-unitary.
What is Memory Span and Working Memory? What is reasoning with verbally presented info?
The broad ability associated with problem solving skills and abstract reasoning (Hint it decreases with age)
What is Gf?
An intermediate stratum level ability that can be defined as the speed and fluency with which similarities or differences in visual stimuli (e.g., letters, numbers, patterns, etc.) can be searched and compared in an extended visual field.
What is Perceptual Speed (Gs Narrow)?
The ability to encode and maintain verbal information in primary memory.
What is Auditory Short Term Memory (Gwm Narrow)?
Coding was a 5 and Symbol Search was a 11, two narrows and potential reasons why non-unitary.
What is Rate of Test Taking and Perceptual Speed? What is recognizing and visual scanning for similar items?
