Structural Validity of the WISC-IV for Students With ADHD
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the structural validity of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth Edition (WISC-IV). Method Confirmatory factor analyses were applied to a sample of 233 students diagnosed with ADHD by school multidisciplinary evaluation teams to evaluate the relative fit of the following competing models: (a) one factor, (b) two oblique verbal and nonverbal factors, (c) three oblique verbal, perceptual, and combined working memory/processing speed factors, (d) four oblique verbal, perceptual, working memory, and processing speed factors, (e) a higher-order model with four first-order factors, and (f) a bifactor model with four domain-specific factors. Results A higher-order four-factor model fit the data best, which was composed of a general intelligence factor and four domain-specific factors that matched the four factors specified in the WISC-IV technical and interpretive manual. Moreover, the general intelligence factor explained more than two times the total variance contributed by all four domain-specific factors combined. Conclusions Results substantiate previous research on the WISC-IV, indicating that the general intelligence factor contributes the most reliable information. Consequently, it is recommended that interpretation of the WISC-IV remain at the Full-Scale IQ score level.

Studies of the WISC-IV in children and adolescents with ADHD have supported the four-factor model structure, but there is also evidence for a five-factor model characterized by either a higher-order or a bifactorial structure.
“The results of these studies have supported the four-factor model structure; however, there is also evidence for a five-factor model (Thaler et al. 2015) characterized by either a higher-order (Styck and Watkins 2017) or a bifactorial structure (Gomez et al. 2016).”

The study by Styck and Watkins (2014) reported good fit for the bifactor model, but this model was rejected as it had an inadmissible solution (one residual variance was negative).

For the higher order factor models in Styck and Watkins (2014) and Thaler et al. (2015), the ECV of the general factor was about twice the total ECV of all the specific factors together.

Styck and Watkins (2014) reported that the omega hierarchical value for the general factor (0.78) was much higher than the omega subtest values of the four specific factors (ranging from 0.09 to 0.34), indicating that only the FSIQ had sound reliability.
“Styck and Watkins (2014) also reported that the ωh value for the general factor (0.78) was much higher than the ωs values of the four specific factors (ranging from 0.09 to 0.34), thereby indicating that only the FSIQ had sound reliability.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
