Older adults (n=224) completed Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R) and questionnaire eliciting information about subjects' perceptions of WAIS-R across five categories. Most subjects experienced WAIS-R as interesting, challenging, motivating, and within their endurance. Picture Arrangement and Block Design were only two subtests rated negatively, by 17% and 22% of subjects, respectively. (Author/NB)
