My friend recently had her four year old son tested for placement at a private school for the gifted. He is having extreme behavioral issues at school that she thinks are related to an educational mismatch. The testing center did not tell her until after testing, when she noticed no working memory subtests, that they did not give the working memory part of the test. He had the WPPSI four. Additionally, he did not understand matrix reasoning under the fluid reasoning section and therefore no composite score was given for fluid reasoning. Can someone look at his scores and let me know if the full scale calculation is correct? I was not aware that fullscale could be calculated without working memory or fluid reasoning. His scores are nowhere near what she was expecting.
Information 12
Similarities 12
Picture concepts 11
Matrix reasoning not included in calculations bc he did not understand the test even with scaffolding
Block design 12
Object assembly ( not included in calculation) 10
Bug search 12
Cancellation 10 (not included)
Full scale 113.
I would love some insight, as she has several questions about the results of the testing. Thank you.
