Hi,
I posted on the general discussion forum but I think this one is the one I really needed:
My 12yo daughter was given WISC-V and the results are the following:
VCI-130
VSI -144
FRI - 125
WMI - 115
PSI-108
FSIQ = 134, 99%ile
The huge difference between VCI-PSI and VSI-PSI (1.5-2 STDs) is supposedly a hallmark of ADHD? She has zero hyperactivity, but inattention issues are rampant... Very sweet and loving otherwise. It doesn't affect her school grades to a very large degree (one or two Bs only, mostly due to missing/incomplete assignments), because she can compensate for it and because I help with non-stop reminders.
What have you done if you have a child like mine? Have you diagnosed, medicated? Have you tried anything caffeine, omega3/6, specific exercise (we do swimming already)?
My younger son hasn't been tested, and he is very bright, but his attention span is vastly different from my daughter - he can concentrate like nobody else, so I don't think this is typical in all intelligent kids.
