WAIS-5
David Wechsler, PhD
The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale®, Fifth Edition (WAIS®-5) is the most advanced psychometric measure of adult cognitive ability, based on recent research in the area of cognitive neuroscience and the theories and work of David Wechsler, PhD. It is an individually administered clinical instrument for assessing cognitive ability.
WAIS-5 and WMS-5 are available.
Use the WAIS-5 with confidence, live training now available.

What's new?
The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale®, Fifth Edition (WAIS®-5) is the most comprehensive and reliable assessment of cognitive ability. It features reduced administration time, updated norms, improved clinical utility, and improved user experience.
The WAIS-5 is widely used in clinical, educational, correctional, and pharmaceutical research and in government settings.
Co-normed with WMS®-5, the WAIS-5 aims to increase the precision of IQ and memory comparisons.
- Relevant to today’s population with new norms
- Reduced administration time for FSIQ and primary subtests
- Simplified administration and scoring directions
- Flexible with improved clinical utility and numerous ancillary index scores
- New expanded index scores for increased interpretive clarity
- New index scores for examinees with expressive language or motor difficulties
- Expanded construct coverage for working memory, fluid reasoning, and processing speed

- Broader measures of the two cornerstones of intelligence
The new WAIS-V subtests
- Set Relations: New Fluid Reasoning subtest that measures deductive reasoning and logical thinking.
- Running Digits: New Working Memory subtest that measures auditory working memory that requires both flexibility in information processing and a progressive shift of attention.
- Naming Speed Quantity: New Processing Speed subtest that measures numerical processing fluency and the ability to recognize and label quantities efficiently.
- Spatial Addition: A measure of Visual Working Memory that measures visual-spatial working memory and requires storage, manipulation, and ability to ignore competing stimuli (also included on WMS®–IV and WMS-5).
- Symbol Span: A measure of Visual Working Memory that measures the capacity to hold a mental image of a design in mind and the relative spatial position on the page (also included on WMS–IV and WMS-5)
