Wide Range Assessment of Memory and Learning Second Edition (WRAML2) is a broad-based memory battery that provides a flexible measure of memory functioning and learning.
- Age range:
- Individuals 5 - 90
- Qualification level:
- C
- Completion time:
- Less than 1 hour for the Core Battery
- Administration:
- Paper-and-pencil
- Scoring options:
- Hand scoring
*Please note: There is a misprint on Table A.1. Scaled Scores Corresponding to Subtest Raw Scores, by Age of the WRAML2 manual corresponding to the 10:0-10:11 age band. The correction is as follows: For the Design Memory subtest, the raw score range for a scaled score of 19 should read 56-60.
WRAML-2 allows users to diagnose memory problems and facilitates the need for two memory tests for adults and children.

Benefits
- Access standard scores, scaled scores, and percentiles, and age equivalents for the child and pre-adolescent age groups.
- Provide an overview of memory functioning in four subtests from the Core Battery.
- Choose from additional subtests and indexes to further enhance working memory assessment capabilities.
Features
The WRAML2 Core Battery is composed of two verbal, two visual, and two attention/concentration subtests.
- Four subtests from the Core Battery provide an overview of memory functioning.
- A General Memory Index comprises Verbal Memory Index, Visual Memory Index and Attention/Concentration Index (coefficient = .93)
- A Working Memory Index comprises Symbolic Working Memory and Verbal Working Memory subtests, plus four recognition subtests: Design Recognition, Picture Recognition, Verbal Recognition and Story Memory Recognition.
- New age norms from 5–90 years.

The WRAML2 can be tailored to meet the clinician’s needs. A screening version (4 subtests) yields Verbal and Visual Memory Indexes, along with an overall Screening Index. Administration time for an experienced clinician, depending on the client’s pacing, is around 20-30 minutes. The standard battery is 6 subtests and yields, in addition to the Verbal and Visual Memory Indexes, an Attention/Concentration Index and a General Memory Index. Total time is around 35-40 minutes. For those wanting more qualitative and comparison data (e.g., a comprehensive n-p battery), the standard battery and all optional subtests take about 60-70 minutes.
-
In addition to material in the accompanying manual there is an Essentials book (Wiley) on the WRAML2 (and TOMAL), co-authored by Wayne Adams and Cecil Reynolds. The WRAML2 portion of that book provides a thorough overview, practical how-to’s, cautions, and interpretive paths to consider.
-
The WRAML2 is a lifespan product (ages 5-90 years) that quickly and efficiently allows clinicians to assess memory function vs. WMS-IV (ages 16-90) and CMS (ages 5-16).
