WAIS

Explanation:

David Wechsler was an American psychologist who in 1955 published the first version of the test we know as "WAIS." These intelligence tests measure:

- The Verbal Comprehension Index, which is the ability of a specific individual to understand and use verbal language.

- Perceptual Reasoning, which measures the ability of the evaluated person to interpret, organize and think correctly using visual information.

- The Working memory evaluates the ability to apprehend and retain information in the short term

- The processing speed is the measure of individual skills to process visual information quickly and efficiently.
