Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Wechsler tests of intelligence, such as the WAIS and WISC, measure multiple factors or subtests including verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. The initial versions of the Wechsler tests were based on a two-factor theory, but more recent versions have incorporated a broader range of factors and theories of intelligence. Therefore, neither B, C, nor D are correct answers.
