The WISC-IV is a commonly used intelligence test specifically designed for children aged 6-16. It assesses cognitive abilities across several domains including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. It is administered in a child-friendly manner and includes items that are culturally and racially neutral. The other options (WAIS-IV, MBTI, DSM-IVR) are not appropriate for an 8-year-old child: the WAIS-IV is designed for adults, the MBTI is a personality assessment that may not be reliable in children, and the DSM-IVR is a diagnostic manual for mental disorders.
