We had our child evaluated with wisc-v and the results came back.
FSIQ: 144 /99.8
VCI: 124/95
similarities: 13/84
vocabulary: 16/98
VSI: 135/99
block design: 15/95
visual puzzles: 17/99
FRI: 140/99.6
Matrix Reasoning: 15/95
Figure Weights: 19/99.9
WMI: 132/98
Digit Span: 17/99
Picture Span: 15/95
PSI: 151/>99.9
Coding: 19/99.9
Symbol Search: 18/99.6
We have scheduled a follow up appointment with the psychologist to interpret the scores. But we wanted to do some additional research before the appointment and ask better questions.
1) Is there a source to read up on what all the sub-sections mean? I went to hoagies but the information there seemed outdated (WISV-IV).
2) Any general thoughts on how to interpret the scores? What kind of questions should we ask the psychologist?
3) There was a comment in the report: "due to the discrepancy between index scores, the FSIQ may be an underestimate of his intellectual abilities". The big variation seems to be VCI. English isn't our primary language. We speak 3 languages at home and my son didn't start to learn english until 3 years old (he is 8 now). Would the nonverbal index be more appropriate for him?
4) Did he hit the ceiling in anything where we may get an even better understanding?
Thanks!
