What is wais-r?

The WAIS-R is an abbreviation for the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised. It is a standardized intelligence assessment test designed to measure cognitive abilities in adults and used primarily in clinical and research settings. The test assesses individuals in several domains of cognitive functioning, including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. The WAIS-R provides a comprehensive picture of an individual's intellectual strengths and weaknesses and is often used in neuropsychological evaluations to identify cognitive deficits or disorders in adults. The test is developed by David Wechsler and has undergone several revisions, including the current WAIS-IV.
