Study Notes

Intelligence Testing: Models, Factors, and Influences

  • Intelligence has been defined in various ways, including as the ability to carry on abstract thinking, adjust to the environment, and acquire knowledge.
  • Models of intelligence include the lumper model, which measures intelligence through a "G" test, and the splitter models, which break intelligence down into various factors.
  • Thurstone's primary abilities model broke intelligence down into seven factors, including verbal comprehension, word fluency, and perceptual speed.
  • Veron's model of intelligence is hierarchical and includes two major factors, verbal education and practical, mechanical, spatial, and physical activities.
  • The current most popular model is John Carroll's three-tier CHC model, which includes eight broad abilities to measure intelligence.
  • Fluid intelligence (Gf) is an ability that can be applied easily in different situations and is measured by Ravens Matrices, while crystallized intelligence (Gc) is dependent on learning and knowledge that can be applied to specific scenarios.
  • Factors that affect IQ test scores include genetic and environmental factors, such as prenatal and early developmental influences, malnutrition, family background, and amount of schooling.
  • Individual intelligence tests provide extra clinical information and are essential for young children, brain-damaged patients, and intellectually disabled individuals.
  • Group intelligence tests are easier to score and administer but may not cater to individual differences or account for factors such as anxiety.
  • Group IQ tests can be verbal or non-verbal, and can be power or speed tests, multiple-choice or free recall, and may include multilevel testing or adaptive computer testing.
  • Computerized testing lags behind recent research findings and may miss non-verbal and emotional behaviors that can moderate test performance.
  • Ethical concerns surrounding computerized testing have not yet caught up with the technology, and 20% of the population may dislike computers, making computerized testing disadvantageous for them.
