Week 5 Flashcards
Binet
Capacity to find definite direction/purpose
Make necessary adjustments along this course
Be willing to engage in self criticism and reflection to allow for adaptation
Spearman
First to use FA for intelligence
g
Cattell
Fluid v crystallised pp
Hierarchical view of intelligence
Fluid
Biological capacity for new things
Crystallised
Accumulated knowledge over time
Wechsler
Global ability
Measured by several different abilities and also non intellectual factors like personality
Thurstone
Several factors to intelligence instead of a single general factor
Thurstone’s 7 primary abilities
Verbal comprehension Word fluency Number facility Spatial visualisation Associative memory Perceptual speed Reasoning
Stenberg
Triarchic theory
Successful people can identify and use strengths, and identify and correct weaknesses
Adapt and shape their environments
Intelligence as forming competencies and competencies as forms of developing expertise
Modifiable
Triarchic theory
Analytical
Creative
Practical
Cattell-Horn-Carroll
3 levels: g to broad abilities to narrow abilities
Main 7 factors of Cattell-Horn-Carroll
Fluid reasoning Comprehension knowledge Visual processing STM auditory processing LT storage and retrieval Processing speed
Routing test
Gets approximate ability to see where to start Stanford Binet test
Basal
Minimum criterion of correct responses from start before stopping
Ceiling
Certain number of incorrect responses at which point testing is stopped
5 factors of Stanford Binet (divided into verbal and non verbal)
FR, KN, QR, VS, WM
WAIS splits
FSIQ split into verbal and performance IQ
VIQ split into verbal comprehension and working memory
PIQ split into perceptual organisation and processing speed
Perceptual organisation and verbal comprehension form general ability index
Difference between WAIS-IV or WISC-IV versus WISC-V
Perceptual reasoning split into fluid reasoning and visual spatial
IQ M and SD
M=100, SD=15
Verbal comprehension index
Verbally acquired knowledge and verbal reasoning
Affected by cultural bias
Perceptual reasoning index
Visual perception (mental imagery), nonverbal reasoning Fluid reasoning: comfort in new and unexpected situations
Processing speed index
Processing visual information quickly
Symbols
Fine motor coordination, attention and sustained effort
Psychometric intelligence
Most robust and consistent predictor of AP
as age increases predictive power decreases
