I've had an WAIS iq result of 133 (measured 4 years ago) but I can only hold 4 digits in my head at once
What's the psychological reason for this? I thought iq was directly correlated to working memory?

Same here. Pls respond
I also have a shitton of intrusive thoughts and other weird attention issues. Very often some slightly weird thing catches my attention and my mind zoomes in to that object but it's not thinking anything like it's in shock stare. That's also why I can't hold a conversation. One weird phrase, pronunciation or similar and I lose the context for a few seconds. While my very short term memory is shit my medium term memory seems to work normally maybe even better than average. I still know my 20 digit wlan password because I needed it last week. Took me 3 minutes to memorize. It's probably autism but I'd like to have a second opinon.

working memory is highly correlated with iq, but a weaker working memory score compared to what you "should" have scored given your iq can usually point to an attention deficit disorder.

this is one way they diagnose ADD. by administering an iq test, and if your working memory scores are lower than they should be for your full-scale iq score, then your chances of having ADD increases.

Average 138 IQ from three tests in controlled settings conducting during different periods of my life. While my scratchpad memory isn't quite as bad as yours', it's not very good either and this has always mystified me a bit.

>working memory is highly correlated with iq
Is it the highest correlation out of all the sections of an iq test?

If your working memory is much lower than the rest of your mental abilities, then they shouldn't be able to calculate IQ. If your left leg is twice as long as the right one, then it's true that your "average leg length is 1.5 units" but it is not accurately represent your legs. So either the psychologist wasn't very knowledgeable or the difference wasn't that big.

Is the correlation 1?

The one time I was tested, my verbal comprehension score was in the 150s, and my perceptual reasoning+working memory were both around 130, but my processing speed was 98. Not really sure what that means.

Am I retarded? This level of ability was enough for a master's in machine learning, by the way.

Hey I took the WAIS-IV recently as apart of an ADHD assessment. Do you mind telling me what your scores were for each of the four categories?
