David Wechsler propose [...] un mode de calcul qui est composé de deux échelles, l’une dite «verbale» et l’autre dite «performance». Le test permet ainsi de comparer chez un même individu son «quotient intellectuel verbal» (QIV), l’efficience intellectuelle générale par rapport à son «quotient intellectuel performance» (QIP) [...] Le QIV et le QIP donnent le QIG «quotient intellectuel global» ou QIT «quotient intellectuel total».
