Intelligence testing

Supported by the direct observation of the child’s behavior and the administration of parents’ questionnaires, the WISC-IV, can be used as a part of a more comprehensive psycho-educational assessment in order to identify learning difficulties, strengths and weaknesses in the cognitive functioning.

The WISC-IV scale is, for this reason, widely used in school settings.

In fact, the Scale identifies cognitive deficits that could be the explanation of a poor academic performance.

In this case the final aim of the evaluation is to provide a detailed profile of the learning skills in order to design an individual learning plan that could facilitate the academic work.
