Examiner did not inquire about relevant mental or physical health related clinical history with Mr. Lewis. No inquiries regarding a learning disability, mental health diagnosis, substance use, or other health issues were discussed nor reported by Mr. Lewis. All information collected from Mr. Lewis was through observation, the natural course of the interview, and through the administration of the test.
Mr. Lewis is a 40-year old Caucasian male. He is married and has one child. Mr. Lewis recently moved to the Seattle area for work. Mr. Lewis reported that he enjoys the Pacific Northwest area, and enjoys traveling. He has worked in Seattle in the past. Therefore, decided to relocate to Seattle recently because …show more content…
Lewis’ nonverbal reasoning abilities as measured by the Perceptual Reasoning Index (PRI=102) were in the average range and above approximately 55% of those in his age range. It can be stated with 95% confidence that his PRI score lies between 96 and 108. This index is composed of three subtests, Block Design (SS=12), (VP=7), (MR=12). Given the similar moderate scoring among the subtests, the PRI should be considered unitary and interpretable. The PRI should be considered an overall indicator of fluid reasoning in the perceptual domain with tasks that assess nonverbal concept formation, visual perception and organization, simultaneous processing, and visual-motor coordination, learning, and the ability to separate figure and ground in visual stimuli (Lichtenberger & Kaufman, 2013). For the subtest Block Design, Mr. Lewis scored in the 75th percentile rank. For Visual Puzzles subset, Mr. Lewis scored in the 16th percentile and at the Low Average. For Matrix Reasoning Mr. Lewis scored in the 75th percentile rank and in the high average range. He has an average ability to reason with visually presented nonverbal stimuli, visual quantitative information, related concrete / abstract visual stimuli. It appears that Mr. Lewis may have some range across his ability to reason with visual nonverbal stimuli, suggesting that he may have some strength in certain areas of perceptual reasoning. Overall, Mr. Lewis is in the average range for Perceptual
