Answer 1

Answer:

B) Stanford-Binet; WAIS

WAIS stands for Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale.

The Stanford-Binet test have four different sections as a pattern. They are verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, abstract reasoning and short-term memory test. The scores of all this sections are added and is given as a single score known as the general score.

Whereas the WAIS measures and tests the  different capacities and then provides scores for each section or capacity.
