Applications of neuropsychology in Memory
Techniques Used For Recall - The development of neuropsychology for measuring different memory functions, including the Wechsler Memory Scale.
The Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS) is a neuropsychological test designed to measure different memory functions in a person. Anyone ages 16 to 90 is eligible to take this test. The current version is the fourth edition (WMS-IV) which was published in 2009 and which was designed to be used with the WAIS-IV. |
