Index Measures:
Verbal reasoning skills; how well you learn info presented to you verbally and how well you verball communicate with others; crystalized intelligence |
VCI
|
|
|
What is the best indicator of how well you learn with info presented to you verbally/ how well you communicate with others verbally?
|

|
|
|
Tells you:

PRI
|
|
|
Tells you:
How long you can hold info in head; attention and concentration skills |
WMI
|
|
|

|
Hearing problems, rapidly progressing neurological condidition (head trauma), test anxiety
|
|
