Answer: B
Substantially higher performance scores than verbal scores on the WAIS point to learning difficulties.
The Wechsler scale has a verbal part and a performance part. A person whose performance subtests, such as block design and picture arrangement, are far above the verbal subtests often has trouble with language-based learning, reading and schooling, and this pattern is used as a clue to a learning disability.
It does not by itself show gender differences, genetic influences or cultural bias, which need other evidence. The official key marks learning difficulties.
