We (Ron Dumont and John Willis) and The Psychological
Corporation, take no responsibility for any errors made while
these templates.
There may be some differences between some of the templates reporting and data in the WAIS-IV Manuals.
The Percentiles reported here are simple SS to Percentile lookups. They are based upon the normal curve distribution.
The Composite and FSIQ ranges are based upon a formula (SEe).
Critical Values for subtest differences are approximations - because there are so many subtest combinations available, the template uses the round
all possible critical values.
Gf-Gc configurations were adapted from Appendix A, pp. 445 – 453, The Intelligence Test Desk Reference (ITDR): Gf-Gc Cross-Battery Assessment

Is the VCI versus PRI Significantly Different? Note: See Table B.1 for standardization frequency
Significance
Is there a significant difference?
VCI (116) vs PRI (109) Difference (p < .01) (p < .05) none
7 points 12 or more 9 0-8 NO
Because there is no significant differences between the VCI and PRI, explain the meaning of the scales
not being significantly different.
Is the VCI versus PRI Difference Abnormally Large? Note: See Table B.2 for standardization frequency
VCI (116) vs PRI (109) Difference Size of Difference needed for abnormality Is Size of Difference Abnormal?
7 points (V > P) 18 NO
Because no abnormal differences are found, determine if the noted differences are interpretable.
Are the VCI and PRI composites interpretable? Note: See Table B.6 for standardization frequency
Because each answers to A and B was NO, the VCI versus PRI discrepancy is interpretable.
Determine if the Working Memory Index is interpretable. Note: See Table B.4 for standardization frequency
Determine if the Processing Speed Index is interpretable. Note: See Table B.4 for standardization frequency

Flanagan, 1998) and Table 8.3, p. 312, The Wechsler Intelligence Scales and Gf-Gc Theory (Flanagan, McGrew & Ortiz, 2000)
The General Ability Index (GAI) is computed from the sum of scaled scores for the VCI and PRI subtests. Unlike the DWI-2 tables, the
GAI tables are based directly on the WAIS-IV normative data.
The Dumont-Willis DWI-2 Index is based on the sum of scaled scores for the Digit Span and Arithmetic (WMI) and Symbol Search and
Coding (PSI) subtests. It should be computed and considered only when the four WMI and PSI subtest scores are close to one another
and substantially separate from the VCI and PRI subtests. In those cases, the GAI and DWI-2 scores may be an efficient alternative
means of summarizing the 10 WAIS-IV core subtests, but they must never be confused with normative WAIS-IV factor and IQ scores.

VISUAL PROCESSING (Gv) is the ability to generate, perceive, analyze, synthesize, manipulate, transform, and think with visual
patterns and stimuli.
SHORT-TERM MEMORY (Gsm) is the ability to apprehend and hold information in immediate awareness and then use it within a few
seconds.
PROCESSING SPEED (Gs) is the ability to perform cognitive tasks fluently and automatically, especially when under pressure to
maintain focused attention and concentration.
FLUID INTELLIGENCE (Gf) is the ability to use and engage in various mental operations when faced with a relatively novel task that
cannot be performed automatically.
QUANTITATIVE KNOWLEDGE (Gq) represents an individual’s store of acquired quantitative declarative and procedural knowledge. It
involves the ability to use quantitative information and manipulate numeric symbols.
