It reflects the proficiency and efficiency of cognitive processing and provides another lens for analyzing children's abilities assessed by the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Fourth Edition (WISC-IV). This article provides the various tables needed to calculate and use the CPI based on Canadian norms. (Contains 5 tables.)
