From psychometric testing to clinical assessment
personalities, ideas, and events that shaped David Wechsler's views of intelligence and its assessment
pp. 163-179
Abstrakt
To the many, the name Wechsler is synonymous with cognitive testing. Although Dr. Wechsler died over 30 years ago, new editions and revisions of the tests derived from his original scale still continue to list him as the sole author. Wechsler's contributions to the field of psychometrics and intelligence testing go well beyond simply the assessment tool he first designed over 70 years ago.
