Confirmatory factor analysis of combined Wechsler adult intelligence scale - revised Wechsler memory scale - revised scores in a healthy community sample

Article Abstract:

A healthy community sample of 193 men and 206 women has been used to examine the joint factor stucture of the Combined Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale. Alternative ability models have been contrasted with different Wechsler scales, with a specific focus on memory function hypotheses. The most appropriate solution was found in a five-factor model which included Visual Memory, Verbal Memory, Attention-Concentration, Perceptual Organization and Verbal Comprehension.
