Abstract

This study investigated the digital version of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, Fifth Edition (WISC-V) Coding subtest in a large Australian clinical and non-clinical sample of 6-11 year old children (N = 794). Data was retrospectively pooled from several studies. Results showed the digital Coding scaled score was significantly elevated compared with all other subtests (M difference = 2.01, 95% CI. 1.74-2.27). Overall FSIQ was higher when calculated using Coding compared with Symbol Search (M difference = 2.067, 95% CI. 1.79-2.34). The Coding and Symbol Search discrepancy in digital administration did not vary according to age and was unrelated to general intelligence. Girls scored higher on average than boys on the digital Coding subtest, but there was no sex effect for the digital Symbol Search subtest (girls: M = 10.76, 95% CI 10.41-11.12; boys: M = 10.27, 95% CI 9.92-10.63). Inflated digital Coding scaled scores were observed across our subsamples of clinical and non-clinical cases, without any significant group differences. Overall, our findings support the notion that the digital WISC-V Coding subtest is inflated, particularly for girls, supporting cessation in the digital administration of this subtest.

使用wiscc - v编码子测试的数字版本时，提高了量表分数。

本研究对澳大利亚6-11岁儿童的临床和非临床样本（N = 794）进行了数字版韦氏儿童智力量表第五版（WISC-V）编码子测试。回顾性地汇总了几项研究的数据。结果显示，与其他所有子测试相比，数字编码量表得分显著提高（M差= 2.01,95% CI）。1.74 - -2.27)。与符号搜索相比，使用编码计算的总体FSIQ更高（M差= 2.067,95% CI）。1.79 - -2.34)。数字管理中的编码和符号搜索差异不随年龄而变化，与一般智力无关。女孩在数字编码子测试中的平均得分高于男孩，但在数字符号搜索子测试中没有性别效应(女孩：M = 10.76, 95% CI 10.41-11.12；男孩：M = 10.27, 95% CI 9.92-10.63)。在临床和非临床病例的子样本中观察到膨胀的数字编码量表得分，没有任何显著的组差异。总体而言，我们的研究结果支持这样一种观点，即数字WISC-V编码子测试被夸大了，特别是对于女孩来说，支持停止该子测试的数字管理。

期刊介绍： The purposes of Child Neuropsychology are to: publish research on the neuropsychological effects of disorders which affect brain functioning in children and adolescents, publish research on the neuropsychological dimensions of development in childhood and adolescence and promote the integration of theory, method and research findings in child/developmental neuropsychology. The primary emphasis of Child Neuropsychology is to publish original empirical research. Theoretical and methodological papers and theoretically relevant case studies are welcome. Critical reviews of topics pertinent to child/developmental neuropsychology are encouraged. Emphases of interest include the following: information processing mechanisms; the impact of injury or disease on neuropsychological functioning; behavioral cognitive and pharmacological approaches to treatment/intervention; psychosocial correlates of neuropsychological dysfunction; definitive normative, reliability, and validity studies of psychometric and other procedures used in the neuropsychological assessment of children and adolescents. Articles on both normal and dysfunctional development that are relevant to the aforementioned dimensions are welcome. Multiple approaches (e.g., basic, applied, clinical) and multiple methodologies (e.g., cross-sectional, longitudinal, experimental, multivariate, correlational) are appropriate. Books, media, and software reviews will be published.
