Configuring WISC-VUK Reports

For the WISC-VUK, there are two reports available: the WISC-VUK Score Report and the WISC-VUK Interpretive Report.

 

WISC-VUK Score Report

The WISC-VUK Score Report contains demographic, composite score, and subtest score information.

 

Field Name

Description

Primary Composite Score Confidence Interval

Select the desired confidence interval for the primary composite scores. This value is used to determine the reliability of the estimate. Increasing the desired confidence level will widen the confidence interval.  (90% or 95%)

Primary Mean Comparison Selections

These selections are used to determine index-and subtest-level strengths and weaknesses.

 

Index-level selections

  • Select the desired critical value significance level, base rate reference group, and comparison score.

  • If mean of index scores is selected as the comparison score and any primary index is missing, the comparison score will default to FSIQ in the report.

Subtest-level selections

  • Select the desired critical value significance level and comparison score.

  • If mean of subtest scaled scores is selected and any primary subtest is missing, the comparison score will default to the mean of FSIQ subtests in the report.

Primary Pairwise Comparison Selections

Index-level selections

  • Select the desired critical value significance level and base rate reference group.

  • If ability level is selected as the base rate reference group and FSIQ is invalid, the base rate reference group will default to overall sample in report.

Subtest-level selections

  • Select the desired critical value significance level.

Process Level selections

  • Select the desired critical value significance level, base rate reference group, and comparison score.

Ancillary Summary and Analysis

When checked, the Ancillary Summary and Analysis are included in the report and the three ancillary selections below are enabled.

Ancillary Index Score Confidence Interval

Select the desired confidence interval for the ancillary index score. This value is used to determine the reliability of the estimate. Increasing the desired confidence level will widen the confidence interval.

Ancillary Index Score Confidence Interval

Select the desired confidence interval for the ancillary index score. This value is used to determine the reliability of the estimate. Increasing the desired confidence level will widen the confidence interval.

Ancillary Pairwise Comparison Selections

Standard Score Comparisons

  • Select the desired critical value significance level and base rate reference group.

  • If ability level is selected as the base rate reference group and FSIQ is invalid, the base rate reference group will default to overall sample in report.

Scaled Score Comparisons

  • Select the desired critical value significance level.

Substitution of Subtest Scores

The drop-down lists show the substitution options that are available based on which raw scores have been entered.

 

WISC-VUK Interpretive Report

The WISC-VUK Interpretive Report contains demographic, composite score, and subtest score information, as well as optional examinee test behaviour, history, and recommendations.
