What is an Intelligence Assessment?

An intelligence assessment is not simply a test to confirm an IQ number. It analyzes a detailed cognitive profile — including verbal comprehension, visuospatial processing, fluid reasoning, working memory, and processing speed — to objectively identify an individual’s cognitive strengths and vulnerabilities.

Assessment Instruments

Children & Adolescents

K-WISC-V (Ages 6 years to 16 years 11 months)

  • Verbal Comprehension Index: vocabulary, verbal reasoning ability
  • Visual Spatial Index: visual information processing, spatial construction ability
  • Fluid Reasoning Index: logical thinking, problem-solving ability
  • Working Memory Index: ability to retain and manipulate information
  • Processing Speed Index: cognitive processing speed and accuracy

Adults

K-WAIS-IV (Ages 16 to 69)

  • Verbal Comprehension Index: vocabulary, general knowledge, comprehension
  • Perceptual Reasoning Index: visual problem-solving, spatial processing
  • Working Memory Index: attention, short-term memory, mental manipulation
  • Processing Speed Index: visual-motor coordination, processing speed

Assessment Overview

  • Duration: 60–90 minutes
  • Target: Children aged 6 and above through adults
  • Method: 1:1 individual assessment with a specialist
  • Report: Comprehensive interpretive report and feedback consultation within 1–2 weeks after completion

  • When cognitive decline or burnout in adults is a concern
  • When a baseline cognitive profile is needed before neurofeedback or cognitive training
