Revise: Neuropsychological Measurement of MemoryThe Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS) is a standardised battery used to assess different memory functions. Rather than giving only one judgement about memory, it provides separate measures that can reveal an uneven pattern of performance.
Name the Wechsler Memory Scale and explain which memory functions it measures, rather than referring only to a general memory test.
Do not describe the Wechsler Memory Scale as a brain scan or claim that a low score alone proves brain damage.
