General Clinical Research Center for a 12-week gluten- and casein-free diet. Each diet was made specifically for the child based on their food preferences. The results of this clinical trial showed no significant difference with Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), Ecological Communication Orientation (ECO), and behavioral frequencies. There were also no significant differences in grouped data for urinary peptide levels of gluten and casein and observed parent…
the use of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-V). The areas of cognitive processing ability measured include crystallized intelligence, short-term memory, visual-spatial processing, reasoning ability, and processing speed. The subtest measure different cognitive processing abilities combine to form five index scores: Verbal Comprehension, Visual-Spatial, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory and Processing Speed which all together make up the Full Scale IQ score. Daniel obtained a…
and memory. Scores obtained on intelligence tests can provide a likely estimate of performance in school. However, these tests do not measure such important factors as creativity, curiosity, persistence, and motivation. The WISC-V yields a Full Scale Intelligence Quotient (IQ) along with five additional composite scores: Verbal Comprehension Index (VCI), Visual Spatial Index (VSI), Fluid Reasoning Index (FSI), Working Memory Index (WMI), and Processing Speed Index (PSI). An average standard…

Psychologists have tried to define and measure intelligence for years. The definition of intelligence is the capacity to understand the world, think with rationality, and use resources effectively when faced with challenges (Wechsler, 1975). Many psychologists have tried to define intelligence in their own words and develop tests to measure the intelligence quotient (IQ). These tests can lead to positive and negative outcomes. In the beginning, Alfred Binet created the first IQ test to…
they collected the data based on the antisocial lifestyle. Additionally, in this research the general intellectual ability had been scaled by measuring the intellectual ability of the vocabulary ad matrix reasoning subtest of the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence. Additionally, during the research period of time, participants had been asked if they had been involved any of the crime within the past 6 months for the 36 months follow-up and within the past 84 months follow-up. The…
