Test Structure
The DAS-II consists of 20 cognitive subtests which include 17 subtests from the original DAS.
The subtests are grouped into the Early Years and School-Age cognitive batteries with subtests that are common to both batteries and those that are unique to each battery. These batteries provide the General Conceptual Ability score (GCA), which is a composite score focusing on reasoning and conceptual abilities.

Famous quotes containing the words test and/or structure:
“The first reading of a Will, where a person dies worth anything considerable, generally affords a true test of the relations love to the deceased.”

“Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (17671835)
