David Wechsler

The Wechsler Memory Scale&reg; Fifth Edition&nbsp;- Australian and New Zealand Standardised Edition (WMS&reg;-5 A&amp;NZ) is the most advanced psychometric measure of adult memory. It is an individually administered clinical instrument for assessing immediate, delayed, and recognition memory across auditory and visual perceptual modalities, as well as visual working memory. The WMS&reg;-5 A&amp;NZ was codeveloped and co-normed with the WAIS&reg;-5 A&amp;NZ, expanding construct coverage, increasing flexibility, and allowing comparison of performance across the two tests.

			<p>The Wechsler Memory Scale &ndash; Fifth Edition: Australian and New Zealand&nbsp;Standardised&nbsp;Edition&nbsp;(WMS-5 A&amp;NZ) enables clinicians to explore core aspects of memory in a highly flexible, yet comprehensive, manner within a broader evaluation battery. First introduced in 1945, the Wechsler Memory Scale has long been regarded as a trusted measure of memory functioning.</p>

			<p>The WMS-5 A&amp;NZ is the latest revision of this comprehensive adult memory assessment and comprises seven subtests measuring cognitive status, auditory memory, visual memory, and visual working memory. It features updated norms representative of today&rsquo;s population, simplified administration options that increase flexibility, and expanded scores to support use across clinical, forensic, rehabilitation, and educational settings</p>

			<p>Co-developed and co-normed with the WAIS-5 A&amp;NZ, the WMS-5 A&amp;NZ allows direct comparison of intellectual and memory abilities, providing deeper insight into an individual&rsquo;s cognitive profile when the two assessments are used together.</p>

			<h3>Features and benefits</h3>

			<ul>
				<li>Flexible administration options for increasingly comprehensive information.
				<ul>
					<li>Mental Status Screener</li>
					<li>Immediate Memory Screener</li>
					<li>Brief Memory Assessment &ndash; Short Form</li>
					<li>Comprehensive Memory Assessment &ndash; Standard Form</li>
					<li>Alternate Form</li>
				</ul>
				</li>
				<li>Updated content to streamline administration.</li>
				<li>Expanded scores for in-depth interpretation of performance.</li>
				<li>Co-developed and co-normed with WAIS-5&nbsp;A&amp;NZ to enhance score interpretation, increase flexibility, and allow comparison of IQ and memory abilities.</li>
				<li>Alternate form allows for retesting and monitoring of memory processes without repeated exposure to the same stimuli.</li>
				<li>Improved digital administration options to eliminate paper materials (<strong>Q-interactive</strong>) or to support tele-assessment when traditional on-site testing isn&rsquo;t possible (<strong>Q-global</strong>).</li>
