The WAIS is an acronym for the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, currently in its 3rd edition; hence, the correct designation is WAIS-III. This IQ test is sold through The Psychological Corporation and is part of the Wechsler series which includes the WISC-III (Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-3rd Edition) and the WPPSI-III (Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence-3rd edition). The tests are named after the founder of the series, David Wechsler. All versions consists of a variety of subtests measuring various aspects of intelligence and the tests are used by trained psychologists to assess cognitive function. The answers would only be availabe by purchasing the test kit and Psych. Corp. will only sell to individuals appropriately trained in its use and interpretation. |

I'm a psychologist. I've administered this test and others like it many times. I'm not going to tell you how to find out the correct answers. It's possible that they're listed on the www somewhere, but I doubt it, because the questions and answers are copyrighted and the owners would vigorously protect their intilletectual property. I will tell you that it's hard to imagine how you would benefit from knowing the answers. The IQ score predicts with moderate accuracy how well you will perform in academically demanding situations like work or school. An overly optimistic prediction (a high score resulting from cheating) might open some opportunity that would otherwise be closed to you. But, because the score was artificially high, you have a much higher than average chance of failing anyway. Better to conform your aspirations to your abilities. I might add that many studies have shown that preparation or study for this kind of test doesn't actually improve your score much, because it takes a high IQ to understand and remember the large number of correct answers. Good luck, BVT |
