Observe the floor layout above and below the internal wall. Most load bearing walls run perpendicular across the ceiling joists. If the interior wall has another wall running either directly above or below it, it is a load bearing wall.
Cut away a small portion of drywall from above any doorways already built into the interior wall using a drywall saw. If you locate a header above the doorway, the wall is load bearing. A header is two 1-by-10 boards screwed together and mounted horizontally above the door opening.
Cut a small portion of drywall away from the side of a doorway in the interior wall using a drywall saw. If the side is built up with a series of three 2-by-4 boards screwed together, the wall is probably load bearing.
