  • Title: Using a short form of the WISC-III: sinful or smart?
    Author: Donders J.
    Journal: Child Neuropsychol; 2001 Jun; 7(2):99-103. PubMed ID: 11935417.
    Abstract:
    This article describes an example of making pediatric neuropsychological assessments more time-efficient. Empirical support, including new data, for the utilization of an eight-subtest short form of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III; Wechsler, 1991) is reviewed. It is concluded that this short form of the WISC-III is a valid substitute for the complete version under most clinical circumstances, allowing the practitioner to expand on interview, history or more specific neuropsychological tests without adding financial or time burdens to the evaluation.
