The WISC-IV is primarily intended for children age 6-16, while the WPSSI is designed for younger children, age 3-7. The overlap indicates that 7-year-olds could be given either measure, with the WPPSI being especially appropriate for a child of below average intellectual functioning, for whom most of the WISC-IV questions might be too difficult.
