1

WASI Full Scale, Verbal and Performance IQ use age-based standard scores for composites, with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15; higher scores indicate better performance;

2

WASI subtests use age-based T-scores, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10; higher scores indicate better performance.

3

WISC=III subsets use age-based scaled scores, with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3; higher scores indicate better performance.

4

Animal Fluency uses an age-corrected z score with a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1; on this measure a higher score indicates better fluency.

5

Trail Making tests use age-corrected z scores which have a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1; lower scores indicate faster completion time.

6

Purdue Pegboard uses age-corrected z scores which have a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1; lower scores indicate faster completion time.

7

CAVLT uses age based standard scores, with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15; higher scores indicate better performance.

8

WJ-R uses age-based standard scores with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15; higher scores indicate better performance.
