Användbarheten hos WNV: granskning av ett nytt icke-verbalt intelligenstest för barn
(2009)Department of Psychology
- Abstract
- This paper investigates the usability of the intelligence test Wechsler Nonverbal Scale of Ability (WNV). Twenty four children in two different age-groups were tested with WNV, 10 children between ages 5 - 6, and 14 children between ages 9 - 10. The WNV turned out to be a useful test when some verbal communication was used in the test situation. This was especially apparent among the younger children, who needed extra verbal instructions and verbal support through the different subtests. The test also contained standardized verbal instructions for all ages. WNV passed through as a fun and intriguing intelligence test with an appropriate time requirement, but not as a pure non-verbal one in the two examined age-groups.
