WIAT III Case Study

846 Words4 Pages

The WIAT-III has several limitations to include the time it takes to administer, the measure is only available in English, the test is highly verbal, some of the scoring criteria for the writing sections did not provide an adequate explanation, and although the sample was normalized on over 2,000 students, it was still normalized on a very small number of people (Vaughan-Jensen, Adame, McLean, & Gamez, 2011). Administering the assessment can take over two hours for a person who is well training in administering the assessment. The WIAT-III is widely used therefore only having the measure in English is a limitation, everyone that is administer the assessment may not have English as their native language, resulting in misinterpretation of the …show more content…

The limitation was that there were to many multiple-choice questions on the measure, less multiple-choice questions forces the test taker do think about the question rather than give an random answer out of the choice provided to them. This also brings up the question of how to address children with these issues and if there are any underlying issue that causes the child to randomly select an answer at random is this a sign of being impulsive. If there was not as many multiple-choice questions on the assessment, it would be interesting to see how that would impact the children attention span and if cognitive fatigue would be impacted. The Wechsler measure take an extensive time to administer, but this is not an area of immediate intervention. Mainly because the time that it takes to administer the assessment is not always in the clinician control. The client could utilize al their time allowed to them to answer their question, not including if the client need to use the bathroom. Even the most experienced clinician cannot directly control the length of time that it takes to administer the

They then attack the transplant because they see it as a foreign body.

6-1. Examples of organizations that could have information silos could be a local restaurant and a chain restaurant. Both probably have information silos if they have a database for each area of work. This could happen if each area doesn 't have a way to communicate their data to the others, which causes problems in the business system running smoothly. For the local store, an EAI would probably be the best because it is for smaller businesses and would disrupt business for a shorter period of time.

At the beginning of round one we had only one product available which was cake. As a company, we decided it would be best to move cake into the low-tech segment on the perceptual map. In order to do that we needed to make adjustments to the performance and size category. The performance was a little low from where we were wanting it.

Even the respondent agreed with the Court of Appeals when they said that it doesn’t matter whether the patient is an inpatient or outpatient or whether the patient is occupying a bed, the hospital is still using the drugs for their own use (Abbott Laboratories v. Portland Retail Druggists, 1976). When an inpatient or outpatient has a take-home prescription, the Supreme Court ruled that the hospital is using the drugs for its own use. This is because the take-home prescription is only used for a limited and appropriate amount of time, and that continuation of care is not unreasonable (Abbott Laboratories v. Portland Retail Druggists,

nk Blot Argumentative Essay (Rough Draft) Mental stability is an important part of living a normal life, but identifying mental illnesses can be a difficult task. One way to identify these illnesses is the Rorschach test, a series of ink blots that supposedly detects these illnesses. However, there is controversy around validity of the Rorschach. In “What’s in an Ink Blot? Some Say Not Much” by Erica Goode, Goode writes about this controversy, where it stemmed from, and where the scientific community stands on it.

Standardized tests are the best option for determining admission to get accepted into college. There is another option available such as high school grade point averages.

I have also read about methods of administration which some literature provides evidence of 5Rs and others give as much as 10RS. Whichever way of dispensing the initial 5RS is the basic for individual to familiarize. There are other things that needs to be considered such as washing hands prior to administering, check the drug chart, the right patient, right drug, right route, right amount/dosage, the history or background record of the patient, allergy or intolerance}, the right education provided to the patient, documenting as given, documenting refusal and right evaluation. On the other hand, I need to have that self-awareness of which patient is in the medication room and know how to talk

Standardized tests are tests designed to evaluate a student’s performance and as well as the teacher’s performance where these tests contain the same set or common questions which are taken by the students annually in the same way (The Johnson Center, n.d.).
