Notes de l'éditeur

  1. First revised in 1986 to improve clinical usefulness and technical adequacy. No content changes were made.  Sentence Sequencing, an optional subtest, was made a required subtest.    In 2008 the test was revised to contain fewer subtests Relational Vocabulary Sentence Completion Paragraph Construction Text Comprehension Contextual Fluency and updated vocabulary. 
  2. If for some reason items are given above the ceiling, any items that are passed are scored as incorrect.  Failure to apply the ceiling conventions in scoring will invalidate the results.
