Week 10 Intelligence 2 Flashcards
What are the two scales for the Multidimensional aptitude battery test?
verbal
performance
What is the main point of multi dimensional aptitude battery
it is group-administered
When is an example of a parallel test and why is it useful?
ACER qualitative reasoning test, useful when there’s a short period of time between two test situations e.g. test a student at the start of term to compare their progress to the end of term
What age group is the ACER qualitative test aimed at?
12-18 years
What types of things does it test?
linguistic/quantitative
What can sometimes be a problem with linguistic questions?
they are culturally heavy- rely heavily on your linguistic abilities therefore do not actually tap your true intellectual ability
What is an example of a cultural light task?
Ravens Progressive Matrices
What do cultural loaded tests correlate with and usually involve?
crystallized ability- pen + paper tests, reading required, speeded tests, verbal content
What do cultural reduced tests correlate with and usually involve?
fluid ability-performance tests, purely pictorial, nonverbal content, solving novel problems
What is the most commonly used intelligence test
Weschler
What are the three types of Wechler Scales/what are they called/what age group
- Wechsler Scale for Preschool & Primary Intelligence 4-7.7 years WPPSI -IV
- Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children 6.5-16.5 years WISC -V
- Wechsler Intelligence Scale WAIS -IV for adults 16-18 years
How do you choose what Weschler test to use when the ages overlap?
look at their general ability e.g. where they sit in class- if the teacher says they are below average you go with the lower test, average-above go to higher test.
What does the Four Factor Model for WAIS IV consist of
- verbal comprehension e.g. vocab. similarities
- working memory e.g. arithmetic, digi span
- perceptual organization e.g. matrix reasoning, visual puzzles
- processing speed e.g. symbol search, digit symbol
What does the five factor model for WAIS IV consist of & what other theory is it related to
- fluid reasoning
- crystallised intelligence
- visual processing
- processing speed
- short term memory
Why do we not use the Stanford-Binet
because it has no Aus norms
How do you report IQ test results
through ranges (e.g. person is in the high range), never report numbers
What are the five factors that the Stanford Binet V tests
- fluid reasoning
- knowledge
- quantitative reasoning
- visuo-spatial reasoning
- working memory
What is the age range for the Stanford binet v
2-90 years (level 1-level 6)
What is a main advantage of the Stanford binet
tests up to an IQ of 160
How does the Stanford binet choose which test is right
you give everyone the same test- your ability determines where you start . Nobody is ever starting at a point that is too easy/too difficult for them.
In the Stanford binet, what are some examples of non verbal items
- object series/matrices
- picture absurdities
- quantitative reasoning
- form patterns
- working memory
In the Stanford binet, what are some examples of verbal items
- knowledge/vocabulary
- verbal analogies
- quantitative reasoning
- position and direction
- last word
