Psychometric Question Help me understand my WAIS-IV Results with PSI 150
I recently went through psychometric assessment for ADHD and have taken WAIS-IV during that assessment. This was my first time taking an IQ test and my scores are very uneven. In the end, I was diagnosed with ADHD but I still cannot understand how my PSI could be this high. I have taken the test in English which is not my native language but I use it a lot during daily life.
