How many points does a child earn for each correctly drawn symbol on CD?

A child earns 1 point for each correctly drawn symbol on the Coding subtest of the WISC-V. This subtest is designed to assess children’s visual-motor coordination, speed of processing, and the ability to follow rules. The symbols must match the provided examples accurately to earn points, emphasizing attention to detail and precision in execution. By allocating 1 point for each correct response, the WISC-V assesses not only the child’s skill in drawing but also their ability to stay focused and organized throughout the task. This scoring methodology allows for a straightforward assessment of performance, making it easier to interpret results in relation to the child's cognitive abilities and processing speed.
