The WAIS is widely used in neuropsychology to diagnose cognitive impairments such as dementia, brain injuries, and other neurological disorders by assessing specific areas of cognitive functioning.
The WAIS helps identify students with learning disabilities or exceptional intellectual abilities, enabling educators to tailor instruction or provide specialized programs.
In occupational settings, the WAIS is sometimes used to assess an individual’s intellectual strengths and weaknesses to determine suitability for specific roles or tasks.
The WAIS is a valuable tool in research to understand how cognitive abilities vary across different demographics, age groups, or clinical populations.
The WAIS is often used to evaluate the cognitive impact of brain injuries by assessing areas such as memory, processing speed, and reasoning abilities, which can be affected by TBI.
