Qualitative results
Total Intellectual Capacity (TIC)
According to the results of the WISC-IV, the subject obtained a CI of 100 with a range of
confidence of 95-105% and percentile range of 50. This indicates that the subject has an index of
intellectual capacity equal to the average, the above based on the standardization curve. It should be noted
it is important to highlight that the CIT is obtained from the combined sum of the scalar scores for the
Verbal Comprehension Index
of Work) and IVP (Processing Speed Index).
Verbal Comprehension Index (VCI)
This index relates to the ability to express concept formation skills.
verbal, expression of relationships between concepts, richness and precision in the definition of
vocabulary, social understanding, practical judgment, acquired knowledge, and agility and intuition
The subject obtained a composite score of 102 with a percentile range of 55 in a
confidence interval of 95-109%. E.B. is within the average range compared to the
standardized population sample.
Perceptual Reasoning Index (PRI)
It is a measure of fluid perceptual reasoning, spatial processing, and integration.
visomotor. This index relates to the ability to express constructive practical skills,
formation and classification of non-verbal concepts, visual analysis and simultaneous processing.
E.B. achieved a composite index of 108 with a percentile rank of 70 in an interval of
confidence of 100-115%. The subject is within the average and in accordance with what is expected compared to
with the standard population sample.
Working Memory Index (WMI)
Analyze the capacity for retaining and storing information, for operating mentally.
with this information, transform it and generate new information. The Memory Index of
work (IMT) is a measure of short-term memory (Gc-Mcp) and reflects the capacity to
temporarily retain certain information in memory, work or operate with it and generate
a result. E.B. obtained a composite index of 91 with a percentile rank of 27 with a
confidence interval of 84-99%. The subject is within the average range and the mean of
the population sample
Processing Speed Index (PSI)
Measures the ability to focus attention, explore, organize and/or discriminate information.
visual quickly and effectively. The evaluated subject obtained a composite index of 91 with a
Percentage range of 27 with a confidence interval of 83-101%. E.B. is within the range
average compared to the population sample.
Weaknesses and strengths.
In carrying out the determination of strengths and weaknesses, the following were identified as strengths:
sub scales of similarities and matrices, so it is understood that the subject possesses

Meanwhile, areas of weakness were identified in the digit span subscales.

possible deficiency in the knowledge of social norms of behavior, judgment and
social maturity and common sense.
