The Woodcock Johnson Tests of Achievement, Third Edition (WJ-III) is an individualized academic achievement test that is widely used by both clinical settings and schools. This educational test is a nationally normed test; therefore, an individual is compared to their same-aged peers. Results of the test include standard scores, percentiles, age-equivalents and grade-equivalents. The test includes 22 batteries of tests that measure academic skills; however, most clinicians give the 13 subtests that give the basic reading, reading comprehension, math calculation, math reasoning, and written expression composites. Many clinicians prefer to use the WJ-III because it assesses core academics and academic fluency subtests for all subjects.
The WJ-III is one of the preferred academic measurements used at Child and Family Development as part of the psychological-educational evaluation. This tool helps clinicians determine the presence of a learning disability and/or attention disorder.
