Unit 9 - Intelligence Flashcards
Focused on identifying the ability or groups of
abilities deemed to constitute intelligence
Factor-Analytic Theories
Designed to illustrate the task required and
assure the examiner that the examinee • understands
teaching items [sunod sunod na mali, stop!]
• Higher levels of education;
• Psychomotor retardation because of depression;
• Conscientious, deliberate approach to problem
solving that hinders quick responding;
• An overly eager response style that produces errors
on timed performance tests but does not affect verbal tests where multiple impulsive responses may eventually produce the correct answer
Higher VIQ than PIQ Scores
criterion that must be met for testing on the subtest to continue
basal age [tama dapat bago magproceed]
An extension of simultaneous and successive processing approach
PASS Model
o Planning: strategy development for problem solving
o Attention: (arousal) receptivity to information
One’s ability to learn is determined by the number and speed of the bonds that can be marshalled
Thorndike: Multifactor Theory
criterion that is reached when an examinee fails a certain number of items in a row
ceiling age
Carrol
Three Stratum Theory of Cognitive Abilities
- general
- broad
- narrow
Best way to measure intelligence was by measuring aspects of several “qualitatively differentiable” abilities
David Wechsler
“The aggregate capacity of the individual to act purposefully, to think rationally, and to deal effectively with his environment
David Wechsler
a psychological dimension that characterizes the consistency with which one acquires and processes information
cognitive style
How information is processed rather than what is processed
Alexandra Luria: Information Processing Theory
adaptive testing advantages
▪ Collect maximum amount of information in the minimum amount of time;
▪ Facilitate rapport; and
▪ Minimizes potential for examinee fatigue
Involves administering test items beyond the level at which the test manual dictates discontinuance
testing the limits
• Poor educational backgrounds;
• Keen perceptual and organizational abilities;
• Ability to cope with the stress induced by timed tests;
• Low socioeconomic background;
• Language deficiency;
• Problems with auditory conceptualizations; and
• Ability to solve novel problems without the benefit of
an extensive amount of accumulated knowledge
Higher PIQ than VIQ scores
Guilford
Theory of Structured Intel.
- deemphasizing or eliminating any reference to g
Spearman
Two Factor Theory of Intelligence
- general intellectual ability factor (g)
- specific factors of intelligence (s)
Thurnstone
Multidimensional Theory
- Primary Mental Ability (PMA)
1. Verbal meaning
2. Perceptual speed
3. Reasoning
4. Number facility
5. Rote memory
6. Word fluence
7. Spatial relations
Thorndike
Multiple Factor Theory
- Social intelligence
- Concrete intelligence
- Abstract intelligence
o Task used to direct or route examinee to a particular level of questions;
o Purpose: direct an examinee to test items that have a high probability of being at an optimal level of difficulty;
routing test
Believed that the most intelligent persons were equipped with the best sensory abilities
Francis Galton
Cattell
Gc and Gv
Fluid / Primary Reasoning Ability
Crystallized / Factual Intelligence
Approach to studying cognitive in a computer-like fashion or encoding, retention, and retrieval
Information Processing View
Horn
Gv and Gq
- Vulnerable abilities
- Maintained abilities
