66 nursing home residents from two units for agitated, cognitively declining seniors were evaluated for agitation. Nursing home employees used a seven-point frequency rating scale to record the frequency of occurrence of different agitated behaviour expressions. ADL (activities of daily living) functioning, frequency of nighttime awakenings, agitation medication use, age, and other characteristics were also tracked, and nurses' explanations for each person's agitation were reported. The findings showed that 1) agitated behaviours were strongly correlated with one another; 2) specific nonaggressive behaviours, like pacing and persistent requests for attention, were most common; and 3) in this severely agitated group of people with cognitive decline, agitated people did not differ from non-agitated people in terms of age, cognitive level, or nighttime awakenings.

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) developed by David Wechsler, is a test designed to show differences between school tests and level of intelligence in children aged 6 to 16. It can also be used as part of a group of tests to assess learning difficulties or intellectual ability.
For example, if two children aged 8 and 12 take test and get similar results, the 8-year old child has a better intellectual ability than the 12 year old.
