Cognitive EvaluationPage Barrios Trabanino, Juan DiegoNovember 28, 2014COGNITIVE EVALUATIONName: Barrios Trabanino, Juan DiegoSchool: InternacionalDate of Birth: 04/27/2009Age: 5 years, 7 monthsSex: MaleDate of Testing: 11/28/2014TESTS ADMINISTEREDWJ III Tests of Cognitive AbilitiesThese tests provide measures of Juan Diego's specific cognitive abilities. A description of each ability is provided. His performance is compared to age peers using a standard score range. His proficiency is described categorically, ranging from limited to average; Juan Diego's test performance can be generalized to similar, non-test, age-level tasks. Additional interpretation of cognitive task performance is provided.COGNITIVE ABILITIESWorking Memory measures Juan Diego's ability to hold information in immediate awareness while performing a mental operation on the information. Juan Diego's working memory standard score is within the low average range (percentile rank range of 5 to 50; standard score range of 75 to 100) when compared to others of his age. His working memory capacity is limited; he will probably find age-level tasks requiring complex processing of information in immediate memory very difficult.Individual TestsAuditory Attention is a test of auditory processing. In this test, Juan Diego was required to point to pictures corresponding to recorded words amid increasingly loud background noise. Juan Diego's standard score is within the low average range (percentile rank range of 6 to 33; standard score range of 76 to 93) for his age. His ability to attend selectively to and discriminate speech sounds amid the effects of auditory distortion is limited to average; he will probably find age-level tasks requiring discrimination of speech sounds difficult.Pair Cancellation provides information about Juan Diego's ability to control interferences, sustain his attention, and stay on task in a vigilant manner. For this test, Juan Diego was asked to locate and mark a repeated pattern as quickly as possible. Juan Diego's standard score is within the average range (percentile rank range of 43 to 61; standard score range of 97 to 104) for his age. His ability to sustain his attention is average; it is likely that he will find age-level tasks of sustained attention manageable. SUMMARYJuan Diego's working memory standard score is in the low average range when compared to others at his age level.Juan Diego's ability to focus his attention on relevant stimuli is low average.TABLE OF SCORESWoodcock-Johnson III Normative Update Tests of Cognitive Abilities Woodcock Interpretation and Instructional Interventions Program, Version 1.1Norms based on age 5-7 CLUSTER/TestRawWAEEASY to DIFFRPISS (90% Band)CALPWORKING MEMORY-4414-11
