Namjena - predmet mjerenja
The WIST measures the disturbances in thinking ability that are basic to schizophrenia, while controlling for intellectual capacity, literacy, and attentiveness. It is available in two forms: Form A presents inherently anxiety-producing content, while Form B has neutral content. Both forms contain 25 multiple-choice questions that can be completed in about 15 minutes by anyone with an eighth-grade education. Individually administered in minutes, the test generates scores that correspond closely with standardized, reliable interview criteria for diagnoses of schizophrenia. WIST is effective in predicting adaptive functioning, rather than just manageability, in real-world versus hospital settings. Comparisons of Form A and Form B scores allow you to discriminate acute from chronic patients.
