(hist | edit) [3,080 bytes] PeteTyerman (talk | contribs) (Created page with "'''Equality Act 2010 – Section 20''' '''Operational Framework for Reasonable Adjustments''' The Equality Act 2010 imposes a positive duty on employers to make reasonable adjustments where workplace arrangements place a disabled employee at a substantial disadvantage. This document provides a structured, practical framework to assist employers in complying with that duty in day-to-day decision-making. It reflects the purpose of the Act — namely, to prevent and remo...") Tag: Visual edit

The domain separation visible in structured cognitive assessment demonstrates that reasoning capacity and efficiency under load may diverge significantly within the same individual. Where systems rely on aggregated...") Tag: Visual edit

The framework described in this section is grounded primarily in domain-based assessment models such as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS). WAIS separates cognitive functioning into distinct domains rather than treating intelligence as a single uniform capacity. This separation allo...") Tag: Visual edit

Generic assessment typically assumes that cognitive abilities are broadly uniform. Where this assumption does not hold, performance may be dominated by the most constrained domain rather than by the reasoning capacity being evaluated. ===...") Tag: Visual edit

Cognitive capacity refers to underlying reasoning ability — abstraction, conceptual integration, and problem-solving. Within WAIS, this is most strongly reflected in reasoning-dominant domains such as Verbal Comprehension (VCI) a...") Tag: Visual edit

WAIS does not measure a single, uniform intelligence. It separates cognitive functioning into multiple domains, including: Verbal Comprehension (VCI) Perceptual Reasoning (PRI) Working Memory (WMI) Processing Speed (PSI) Each domain is standardi...")

Adjustment can operate on how cognitive ability is accessed and expressed, but not on whether cognitive ability exists. This distinction is central to valid assessment. === Non-adjustable domains: core capacity === Certain cognitive domains reflect intrinsic reasoning ability, abstra...") Tag: Visual edit

Some domains may be strong or exceptional, while others are significantly more constrained. This unevenness is common in neurodivergent conditions such as dyslexia and ADHD, and is frequently present in autism. Where assessment systems assume that cognitive abilities are broadly even, uneve...")

Judicial and tribunal settings often place high demands on speed of response, verbal articulation, memory, and real-time processing. Where these demands interact with...")

In education, assessment often conflates understanding with the speed, fluency, or format in which that understanding is demonstrated. For learners with uneven cognitive profiles, reasoning ability may be underestimated becaus...") Tag: Visual edit
