He developed tests to predict a child's level of success in regular education.

• Alfred Binet
• William Stern
• Lewis Terman
• Pavlov

Which of the following is NOT true about Alfred Binet's intelligence testing?

• It was developed because he wanted to support students who would need support.
• It would predict school achievement.
• He believed that all students would be successful in the new required universal education happening in France.
• It measured mental age and could predict school learning challenges.

Which of the following is NOT true about Alfred Binet's theories on intelligence?

• He assumed that all children followed a different course of development.
• He assumed that all children followed the same course of development, some going more quickly, and others more slowly.
• He attempted to measure mental age - which was how far the child had come along the "normal" developmental pathway.
• He implied that children with lower ability were delayed, and not disabled, and with help they could improved.

Who adapted Alfred Binet's test?

• Lewis Terman
• Stanford Binet

What of the following is NOT true about Lewis Terman, the Stanford University professor who developed the Stanford-Binet intelligence test?

• He tested many California residents to develop new norms about ow people typically perform on tests.
• He added new test items and extended the age range to adulthood.
• He reported scores as simply one's mental age; a 10 year old with below average intelligence might have a mental age of 8.
• He described intelligence as a quotient, a ratio comparing mental age ato chronological age.; IQ = mental age/chronological age x 100.

William Stern added a way of scoring of the Stanford-Binet test known as the Intelligence Quotient. IQ= mental age/chronological age x 100

• true
• false

Whose theory is supported below:
If you get a low score on an IQ test you should study and develop self discipline and attention span.
