Hi all. It has been a while since I posted. Raising a DGS7 with Asperger's, SID, depression and anxiety has taken a lot of time the last few months.
My main question is: should there be a full standard deviation difference in FSIQ scores on the WISC-III and WISC-IV taken only a year apart? The WISC-IV examiner noted is the report that DGS's "unique set of thinking and reasoning abilities" made his overall functioning hard to summarize.
WISC-III FSIQ 123
WISC-IV FSIQ 103
All the research I have seen predicts on about a .5 SD difference in the scores.
I haven't been all that concerned about it, as he was progressing nicely in school. Now, we are back to severe school anxiety and he has been sent to the "ISI" room at least once a week to calm down. I don't even know where to go with his IEP at this point. First grade shouldn't be this hard for a child!
