Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The WISC-IV (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, 4th Edition) is designed to measure the IQ of children ages 6 to 16. The other tests listed are not appropriate for assessing the IQ of a six-year-old: the WAIS-IV (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, 4th Edition) is designed for adults, the SAT is a college admissions test, and the Dove Counterbalance test is not a well-known or widely used intelligence test.
