Until cable arrived in Madison in the 1980s, WISC was the only local station that provided a clear signal to most of the market.

The original WISC ( Wechsler, 1949 ) was an adaption of several of the subtests which made up the Wechsler – Bellevue Intelligence Scale ( Wechsler, 1939 ) but also featured several subtests designed specifically for it.

WISC usually airs the full CBS program schedule, though pre-emptions to overnight hours may occur due to local news or sports commitments, including occasional broadcasts of Wisconsin Badgers hockey broadcasts.

WISC-TV also produces a 9 p. m. newscast for Fox affiliate WMSN-TV, under a news share arrangement that began on January 1, 2012 ( before then, WMSN had aired a newscast from WKOW since 1999, while WISC had produced a 9 p. m. newscast for TVW since 2004 ).

A total of five composite scores can be derived with the WISC – IV.

WISC – IV is also validated with measures of achievement, memory, adaptive behaviour, emotional intelligence, and giftedness.

Evidence of the convergent and discriminant validity of the WISC – IV is provided by correlational studies with the following instruments: WISC – III, WPPSI – III, WAIS – III, WASI, WIAT – II, CMS, GRS, BarOn EQ, and the ABAS – II.

Other patterns for children with learning disabilities show a similar lack of usefulness of the WISC as a diagnostic tool.

The WISC – IV has also been co normed with the Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-II UK ( WIAT – II UK ; The Psychological Corporation, 2005 ), a measure of academic achievement.

Using such comparisons with other sources of data, the WISC can contribute information concerning a child's developmental and psychological well-being.
