Both individual age group involved are 17 years 11months and younger. The neuropsychological assessment batteries were administrated by trained psychologists in a single session. The neuropsychological battery test included Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Selective Reminding test, Spatial Recall Test, Symbol Digit Modalities Test, Trail Making Test, Modified Card Sorting Test, Semantic and Phonemic verbal fluency test, Oral Denomination test ,Token test, Indication of Picture,…

General Intellectual Functioning: In order to get an overall estimate of Mr. Smith’s intellectual functioning; an entire WAIS was completed by the patient. Mr. Smith earned a FSIQ of 111, classifying his overall intellectual ability, as measured by the WAIS-IV, as High Average Range. Furthermore, in the case of Mr. Smith, the difference between his highest index (140 on the PSI) and his lowest index (96 on the VCI) =44points. This value is more than 23 points, so his FSIQ is less useful and…

assessed with 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 subtests measured different cognitive processing abilities and when combined form five index scores: Verbal Comprehension, Visual-Spatial, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory and Processing Speed, which makes up the Full-Scale IQ score. Devyn obtained a Low…

The areas of cognitive processing ability measured include crystallized intelligence, short-term memory, visual-spatial processing, reasoning ability, and processing speed. The subtests 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.

This report is done as an assignment for the practicum field experiences that need to be completed as part of coursework for Cognitive Assessment and Intervention, which is part of the School Psychology Graduate Professional Diploma Program. Background: Rachel is a nine years one-month-old Hispanic female, who voluntarily and with the written consent of her parents agreed to be evaluated by a school psychology candidate enrolled in Cognitive Assessment and Intervention course at New Jersey City…

appear to be a cause for concern for Mr. Moreno’s learning or memory abilities at this time. Mr. Moreno was administered the WTAR. Mr. Moreno’s cognitive outcomes were stable and average in performance. The estimate of Mr. Moreno’s premorbid Full-Scale IQ was 84 plus or minus 15 points or likely falling in the Low Average Range in the 14-percentile range. Mr. Moreno’s scores on the Personality Assessment Screener (PAS) suggest a marked risk for clinical problems in areas…

Balance Assessment in Parkinson’s Disease Using Virtual Reality Evidence-based practice includes the integration of patient values and focuses on the most appropriate course of action through clinical expertise and best available research. In order to produce the best research a clinician must form an adequate question and search strategy, critique the research found, critically interpret the findings, and apply them to each patient scenario. For instance, a clinical scenario could be, “Gerald…

impact would cause earthquakes that have the potential to seriously affect people and animals. To measure the effect the meteor will have on the Earth, I will calculate its magnitude. In order to calculate the magnitude of the earthquake, I will first calculate the kinetic energy of the meteor impact.…

earthquakes, however, earthquakes can get to be very powerful. An earthquake’s magnitude can be measured on a scale developed in 1935 by Charles F. Richter, called the Richter Scale. The scale measures in a whole digit followed by decimal fractions, so it can be read like a 2.3, or a 7.9 earthquake. The scale measure goes from low to high, with each whole number increase representing a tenfold increase in magnitude. Earthquakes that measure around or below a 2.0 can barely be felt even by…

countries because they are on fault lines (lists10.com). We measure earthquakes by the Richter scale. The Richter scale measures earthquakes by magnitude on a scale from 1-10. The magnitude is based on the size of the largest wave recorded on a seismometer. Seismometers are instruments that detect and record ground vibrations. The lower magnitude earthquakes are usually not felt by people and the higher magnitude earthquakes could be very destructive (Michigan Technological University). It’s…
