The WAIS-IV (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale) and WISC-V (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children) attempt to measure intelligence. These tests assess an individual's cognitive abilities, including verbal comprehension, visual-spatial processing, working memory, and processing speed. They are commonly used in clinical and educational settings to evaluate intellectual functioning and inform interventions and accommodations for individuals with cognitive strengths and weaknesses.
