韦氏记忆量表修订版（WMS-R）的心理测量学特征进行了评估，并与其临床实用性。量表得分的准确性被证明是有限的，其高标准误，低可靠性，以及随之而来的大标准误差的测量。具体程序进行了讨论，建立置信区间和测试分数之间的差异的意义。它的结论是，WMS-R，像原来的韦氏记忆量表，只提供了一个粗略的估计整体记忆功能。多维指数评分在描述记忆缺陷的性质或模式方面并不有效。提供了WMS-R的临床使用建议。
The psychometric characteristics of the Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised (WMS-R) are evaluated and related to its clinical utility. The accuracy of the scale scores is shown to be limited by their high standard error, low reliabilities, and consequent large standard eerrors of measurement. Specific procedures are discussed for establishing confidence intervals and for testing the significance of differences between scores. It is concluded that the WMS-R, like the original Wechsler Memory Scale, provides only a rough estimate of overall memory functioning. The multidimensional index scores have not been shown effective in describing the nature or the pattern of memory deficits. Recommendations for the clinical use of the WMS-R are provided.
