This document contains a rubric for evaluating a test administrator's performance on the WAIS-IV intelligence test. It lists the test subtests and potential strengths and areas for improvement in administering each subtest. Strengths include accurately reading directions, fluid administration, correct scoring and timing. Potential errors are listed as major errors, which could significantly affect scoring, and minor errors, which have a minor effect. Areas highlighted for improvement include reading directions verbatim, fluidity in administration and scoring, and following correct procedures. The rubric is intended to provide feedback to test administrators on their performance.
