Cognitive assessment
Wechsler diagnoses
-
FSIQ score of approximately 70 or below (2 standard deviations below the mean), along with deficits in adaptive functioning.
For ID, it is not just the FSIQ that is considered, but also how the individual functions in everyday life.
Learning Disorders (e.g., Dyslexia, Dyscalculia):
A significant discrepancy between intellectual ability (as measured by FSIQ or relevant index scores) and academic achievement (as measured by standardized academic tests).
For example, a child with superior intellectual ability but significantly below-average achievement in reading might be diagnosed with dyslexia.
-
Scores on the WMI and PSI (which can be lower for individuals with attention difficulties) might be considered alongside behavioral observations and ratings.
-
There is no specific IQ profile for ASD, but in some cases, there may be a notable discrepancy between Verbal and Perceptual Reasoning Indices, or between subtest scores.
Neurocognitive Disorders (e.g., due to Alzheimer’s disease, Traumatic Brain Injury):
Declines relative to prior levels of functioning, often across multiple domains, but especially in Memory and Processing Speed.
