Frequently Asked Question:

Why does the Record Form for 9-21 years have items that are given to younger children?

Answer:

Subtests that are in Record Form 1 and Record Form 2 are as similar as possible across both Record Forms for several reasons:

• Items are numbered consistently from one record form to the other;
• It is easier for examiners to become familiar with the layout of the subtest;
• Earlier items can be administered to an older student if necessary only if the items are included in the Record Form.
