Abstract
To determine whether requiring 16-65 yr. old WAIS Ss to explain their Picture Arrangement (PA) sequences affects PA scores, 56 Ss were given the WAIS and asked to tell PA stories, and 102 Ss were given the WAIS under standard instructions. 37 pairs of Ss were matched for age, Full Scale IQ, and reason for referral. No significant differences were found between Ss who told PA stories and those who did not. Findings were contrasted with those of J. Herrell and J. Golland, who found a 2-point scaled score increment on PA for WISC Ss who explained their sequences. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved).
