The WAIS (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale) primarily assesses cognitive abilities including visuospatial intelligence, which involves the ability to understand visual and spatial information and relationships. Garner's other types of intelligences like interpersonal, existential, musical, and naturalistic are not directly measured by traditional IQ tests like the WAIS.
