WISC results are interpreted by examining the scores from different subtests and composite scores. The main scores include:
Full Scale IQ (FSIQ): A composite score that represents overall cognitive ability. Index Scores: Scores for each domain such as Verbal Comprehension, Visual-Spatial, Fluid Reasoning, Working Memory, and Processing Speed.
The scores are compared to age-based norms to determine where the child stands in relation to their peers. Psychologists use these results to provide insights and recommendations for parents, educators, and healthcare providers.
