Study Notes
Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale
- Developed by Alfred Binet in 1905 as the Binet-Simon Scale, the first published intelligence test to provide organized and detailed administration and scoring instructions.
- Introduced the concept of IQ and alternate items for specified conditions.
- Criticized for lack of representativeness of the standardization sample.
1916 Revision
- Published by Lewis Terman, containing alternate items at most age levels.
- Emphasizes abstraction and novel problem solving, extending the range of items relative to the Binet-Simon Scale.
- Based on extensive research literature and extensive standardization.
1937 Revision
- Utilized a large geographically diverse standardization sample.
- Contains alternate items at most levels, sharing items to maintain continuity with earlier versions.
- Extends the range of items, based on extensive research literature.
- Includes more performance tests at earlier age levels and more representative norms.
- Includes parallel form and uses toys to make the test more engaging for young children.
- Verbal items allow subjects to display fluency, imagination, unusual or advanced concepts, and complex linguistic usage.
1937 Scale Development
- Developed two equivalent forms, labeled L (for Lewis) and M (for Maude).
- Introduced new types of tasks for use with preschool-level and adult-level test-takers.
- Criticized for lack of representation of minority groups during the test's development.
1960 Revision
- Consisted of only a single form (labeled L-M) and included the best items from the two forms of the 1937 test.
- Used the deviation IQ tables in place of the ratio IQ tables.
1972 Revision
- Criticized for the quality of the standardization sample, which may have overrepresented the West and large urban communities.
Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition (SB:FE)
- Published in 1986, using a point scale instead of an age scale.
- Represented a significant departure from previous versions in theoretical organization, test organization, and test content.
Measuring Intelligence
- Techniques used in infancy (birth to 18 months) include testing alerting response, assessing responsiveness, and focusing a light on the eyes of the infant.
- APGAR Scale is used to assess a newborn's condition, evaluating appearance, pulse, grimace, activity, and respiration.
- Brazelton Neonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale (NBAS) measures neonate's responses to the environment.
Tests Used in Measuring Intelligence
- 1905: Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon created the world's first formal test of intelligence.
- 1908: The original Binet-Simon Scale was in use in the United States.
- 1912: A modified version of the Binet-Simon Scale was published, extending the age range of the test downward to 3 months.
- 1916: Lewis Terman published a translation and extension of the Binet-Simon Intelligence Scale.
