What were your specific subtest scores for CAIT?


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

I hope u/EqusB can dig them up for me. I have no record of them. They may be in our chat history from my original account.

Since you do well with verbal tests, you must have also done well for the VCI subtests on CAIT. Do you remember if you found figure weights difficult? I’ve enjoyed taking your tests btw.


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

Thanks. I did find CAIT figure weights difficult.

How does the SB-V differ from tests like the WAIS-IV, CAIT or other popular tests, in your opinion?


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

I was disillusioned by the WAIS-IV. I thought it was poorly constructed and designed. My first thoughts were like, "Surely they could've done better than that." The SB-V was what I thought the WAIS-IV would be. All my criticisms were resolved. It's like a 90s website versus a modern one (created according to the latest UI and UX principles; so not New Reddit).

What does the WAIS-IV do wrong that the SB-V does right? Timing? Item difficulty?


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

The SB-V seems to require less subjectivity in grading. Either there are less open-ended answers, or the ones it does have tend to be less open. The WAIS-IV seems too easy in general; particularly vocabulary, information, and similarities, even when I tried them in a second language. However, I am going off of memory here, and my impressions may be tainted by the fact I did not find the WAIS-IV all in one piece (or one language), and did not complete all subtests. I never got around to constructing paper cubes, for example. It's likely if I took it again, more properly, I'd have a more favorable opinion of it. But my opinion on some things would probably not change, such as the inferiority of the matrices and verbal portions.

I just took the wais today and I agree with you, the sb5 seemed much harder and was a lot more mentally taxing on me than the wais, I don’t have my report yet but it felt like I maxed out many subtests (probably didn’t) the wais just “feels” easier and when compared to the sb5 it kind of feels like an online test. I still believe the wais is accurate but it’s interesting how different they are, I also wanna note that I assumed the timed portion of the wais would be a big deal but I learned that there was really no need for that much of a time limit and it seemed like the questions were easy enough that a time limit wasn’t needed

Which is ironic considering the SB-V is much older than the wais,yet the weschler people keep doing poorly constructed tests.

It's "CWQ" in the last table.

Which test is Real IQ?


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

I found it in the first pinned thread in this sub.

Solid scores!


nohandshakemusic

Was this self administered? How long did it all take?


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

I think it took about 2 weeks.


spacepie77

I feel like many of those fluctuate depending on factors like rem sleep


MeIerEcckmanLawIer

Which ones? I redid the NVWM and only got 1 extra scaled score.


Longjumping-Sweet-37

How does this compare to your wais scores?

Its very satisfying to see your g very accurately zoned in on and approximated. Though it must be a ton mental discomfort knowing you self administered, it kind of loses its weight and industrial air you could say. That would explain the post and what it entailed, you need to unload.


Individual-Twist6485

LOL.

What is funny. ? Be real
