WJ IV Clinical Use and Interpretation: Scientist-Practitioner
Perspectives_ provides clinical use and interpretive information for
clinical practitioners using the _Woodcock-Johnson, Fourth Edition (WJ
IV)_. The book discusses how the cognitive, achievement, and oral
language batteries are organized, a description of their specific
content, a brief review of their psychometric properties, and best
practices in interpreting scores on the WJ IV.
Coverage includes the predictive validity of its lower order factors
and the clinical information that can be derived from its 60
individual subtests. Part II of this book describes the clinical and
diagnostic utility of the WJ IV with young children for diagnosing
learning disabilities in both school age and adult populations, and
for identifying gifted and talented individuals.
Additionally, the book discusses the use of the WJ IV with individuals
whose culture and language backgrounds differ from those who are
native English speakers and who were born and raised in mainstream US
culture.
