💪In this online course on the WAIS-IV you will be able to strengthen your competencies, abilities and skills in the application, qualification, interpretation and writing of results in a psychological/neuropsychological report.
🎥 The syllabus is made up of the following content format. The first two modules (module 0 and module 1) are open access modules for the public (which will allow you to get an idea of the quality of our courses). The rest of the modules will be exclusively accessible to those who purchase the course via payment.
Module 0: Introduction to WAIS-IV Test Materials.
✅ Module 1: General review of the WAIS-IV. Technical sheet, main cognitive skills, secondary indexes and Intelligence Quotient as a measure of the intellectual capacity of an adolescent or adult.
✅ Module 2: Age range and clinical judgment when deciding between applying a WISC-IV (WISC-IV, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children -IV) and WAIS-IV (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Adults-IV).
✅ Module 3: Preliminary considerations before application. Which patients are candidates to be evaluated with a WAIS-IV? Correlation and clinical judgment with other intelligence tests. Special mention will be made of other intelligence scales for adults, such as the TONI-IV (Non-Verbal Intelligence Test), WMS IV, Wechsler Memory Scale-IV (WMS IV), DICAE (Cognitive Exploration of people with Intellectual Development Disorder and Extensive Support) and the use of complementary scales that help the professional to gain greater comprehensiveness in their psychological/neuropsychological evaluation planning.
✅ Module 4: General administration rules: substitution rules, apportionment, starting rules, backtracking rules, timekeeping, demonstration/practice activities, behavioral observations, and common mistakes.
✅ Module 5: Test administration: a review of the 10 main and 5 supplementary subtests of the WAIS-IV will be made.
Main tests
👉🏼 Design with cubes (administration, general application rules, demonstration video applying the test, behaviors to observe and common errors).
👉🏼Similarities (administration, general application rules, demonstration video applying the test, behaviors to observe and common errors).

👉🏼 Cancellation (administration, general application rules, demonstration video applying the test, behaviors to observe and common errors).
👉🏼 Incomplete Figures (administration, general application rules, demonstration video applying the test, behaviors to observe and frequent errors).
✅Module 6: Basic principles of Psychometry. Calculation of Main Indices (Verbal Comprehension Index, Perceptual Reasoning Index, Working Memory Index and Processing Speed Index) and Secondary Indices (General Ability Index and Cognitive Competence Index). Likewise, the calculation of the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) will be explained.
✅ Module 7: Score comparison. What is an interpretable IQ? How to calculate an interpretable IQ and how to calculate an interpretable scaled score?
✅Module 8: Interpretation and writing of results in a psychological/neuropsychological report.
