One of the best ways to root out cultural bias in the development of the WAIS-IV is to specifically review all test items for cultural bias. This would ensure that any potential cultural biases are identified and addressed before the test is administered to individuals from different cultures. Administering the test to experts from different cultures or in ethnically diverse communities could also be helpful, but may not necessarily identify all potential biases in the test items. Analyzing each of the test items in focus groups with experts from different cultures could also be helpful, but may not be the most efficient or practical approach.
