A	B
intelligence test	a method for assessing an individual’s mental aptitudes and comparing them with those of others, using numerical scores.
intelligence	mental quality consisting of the ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use knowledge to adapt to new situations.
general intelligence	an overall cognitive ability that, according to Spearman and others, underlies specific mental abilities and is therefore measured by every task on an intelligence test.
factor analysis	a statistical procedure that identifies clusters of related items on a test; used to identify different dimensions of performance that underlie a person’s total score.
savant syndrome	a condition in which a person otherwise limited in mental ability has an exceptional specific skill, such as in computation or drawing.
emotional intelligence	the ability to perceive, understand, manage, and use emotions.
mental age	measure of intelligence test performance devised by Binet; the chronological age that most typically corresponds to a given level of performance.
Stanford-Binet	the widely used American revision of the original intelligence test.
intelligence quotient (IQ)	defined originally as the ratio of mental age (ma) to chronological age (ca) multiplied by 100 (thus, IQ = ma/ca × 100). On contemporary intelligence tests, the average performance for a given age is assigned a score of 100
achievement tests	tests designed to assess what a person has learned.
aptitude tests	tests designed to predict a person’s future performance
Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS)	the most widely used intelligence test; contains verbal and performance (nonverbal) subtests.
standardization	defining meaningful scores by comparison with the performance of a pretested group.
normal curve	a symmetrical, bell-shaped graph that describes the distribution of many types of data; most scores fall near the mean (68 percent fall within one standard deviation of it) and fewer and fewer near the extremes.
reliability	the extent to which a test yields consistent results, as assessed by the consistency of scores on two halves of the test, or on retesting.
validity	the extent to which a test measures or predicts what it is supposed to.
content validity	the extent to which a test samples the behavior that is of interest.
predictive validity	the success with which a test forecasts the behavior it is designed to forecast; it is assessed by computing the correlation between test scores and the criterion behavior.
intellectual disability	(formerly referred to as mental retardation) a condition of limited mental ability, indicated by an intelligence score of 70 or below and difficulty in adapting to the demands of life; varies from mild to profound.
Down syndrome	a condition of intellectual disability and associated physical disorders caused by an extra copy of chromosome 21.
stereotype threat	a self-confirming concern that one will be evaluated based on a negative condition

Question	Answer
intelligence test	a method for assessing an individual's mental aptitudes and comparing them with those of others, using numerical scores
mental age	a measure of intelligence test performance devised by Binet; the chronological age that most typically corresponds to a given level of performance. Thus, a child who does as well as the average 8-year-old is said to have a mental age of 8
Stanford-Binet	the widely used American revision (by Terman at Stanford University) of Binet's original intelligence test
intelligence quotient (IQ)	defined originally as the ratio of mental age (ma) to chronological age (ca) multiplied by 100 (thus, IQ= ma/ca x 100). On contemporary intelligence tests, the average performance fir a given age is assigned a score of 100
intelligence	mental quality consisting of the ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use knowledge to adapt to new situations
factor analysis	a statistical procedure that identifies clusters of related items (calles factors) on a test; used to identify different dimensions of performance that underlie one's total score
general intelligence (g)	a general intelligence factor that Spearman and others believed underlies specific mental abilities and is therefore measured by every task on an intelligence test
savant syndrome	a condition in which a person otherwise limited ability has an exceptional specific skill, such as computation or drawing
emotional intelligence	the ability to percieve, express, understand, and regulate emotions
creativity	the ability to produce novel and valuable ideas
aptitude test	a test designed to predict a person's future performance; aptitude is the capacity to learn
achievement test	a test designed to assess what a person has learned
Wechsler Asult Intelligence Scale (WAIS)	the WAIS is the most widely used intelligence test; contains verbal and performance (nonverbal) subtests
standardization	defining meaningful scores by comparison with the performance of a pretested "standardization group"
normal curve	the symmetrical bell-shaped curve that describes the distribution of many physical and psychological attributes. Most scores fall near the average, and fewer and fewer scores lie near the extremes
reliability	the extent to which a test yields consistent results, as assessed by the consistency of scores on two halves of the test, on alternate forms of the test, or on retesting
validity	the extent to which a test measures or predicts what it is supposed to
content validity	the extent to which a test samples the behavior that is of interest (such as driving test that samples driving tasks)
criterion	the behavior (such as college grades) that a test (such as the SAT) is designed to predict; thus, the measure in used defining whether the test has predictive validity
predictive validity	the success with which a test predicts the behavior it is designed to predict; it is assessed by computing the correlation between test scored and the criterion behavior
mental retardation	a condition of limited mental ability, indicated by an intelligence score below 70 and difficulty in adapting to the demands of life, varies from mild to profuse
Down syndrome	a condition of retardation and associated physical disorders caused by an extra chromosome in one's genetic make up
stereotype threat	a self-confirming concern that one will be evaluated based on a negative stereotype

Is the chronological age that most typically corresponds to a given level of performance?

Mental age is the chronological age that typically corresponds to a particular level of performance. Example: A ten-year-old child whose score indicates a mental age of twelve performed like a typical twelve-year-old.

Which term is used as the measure of intelligence where a level of performance is based on chronological age?

Mental age: Based on the average level of performance for a particular chronological age, mental age represents a child's level of cognitive ability. Stanford-Binet IQ Test: An early IQ test created by Terman that originally measured intelligence by dividing mental age by chronological age and multiplying by 100.

Which term is a measure of a person's mental age compared to their chronological age?

The test is scored in terms of intelligence quotient, or IQ, a concept first suggested by German psychologist William Stern and adopted by Lewis Terman in the Stanford-Binet Scale. The IQ was originally computed as the ratio of a person's mental age to his chronological (physical) age, multiplied by 100.

What is the most commonly used intelligence test?

Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale – Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV) The WAIS-IV is the most commonly used test of intelligence for persons aged 16 through 75 years, and may be the intelligence test chosen if your child is a teenager above the age of 15.
