  2. 1. Charles Spearman believed: • A) intelligence could not be measured by only one IQ score. • B) IQ alone can not predict success in life. • C) the g factor describes general, overall intelligence. • D) personality is more important than IQ in measuring success.

  3. 2. Howard Gardner believes that intelligence must be defined: • A) by a single factor, called g. • B) within the context of a particular culture. • C) in terms of Verbal, Performance and Full Scale IQ’s. • D) in terms of multiple factors.

  4. 3. Some people, mostly males with autism, have extremely limited abilities; yet, they have a specific ability far beyond the capabilities of the average person. They have: • A) mental retardation. • B) the g factor. • C) inherited genius. • D) savant syndrome.

  5. 4. Robert Sternberg describes three intelligences, including all of the following, except: • A) Analytical. • B) Mathematical. • C) Creative. • D) Practical.

  6. The statistical procedure which identifies clusters of related items is called: • A) factor analysis. • B) cluster computation. • C) chunking comparison. • D) correlation coefficient.

  7. 6. Being able to respond appropriately when interacting with others suggests: • A) multiple intelligences. • B) street smarts. • C) emotional intelligence. • D) creative intelligence.

  8. 7. Studies of creative people suggest five components of creativity, including the personality described as: • A) a venturesome personality. • B) a stickler for details. • C) a strict follower of rules. • D) a loner.

  9. 8. Studies show that intelligent people differ in their brain’s ability to adapt and grow to the environment, called: • A) synaptic development. • B) neural plasticity. • C) developmental process. • D) inherited potential.

  10. 9. Creative people have a desire to come up with new ideas as the result of: • A) getting paid for it. • B) being pressured to perform. • C) extrinsic motivation. • D) intrinsic motivation.

  11. 10. In considering the impact of general intelligence on success: • A) measured IQ is correlated with obtaining academic success. • B) emotional IQ is correlated with being successful in one’s career. • C) measured IQ is correlated with obtaining a good job. • D) all of the above.

  12. 11. Originally, IQ was determined by calculating: • A) the average score on Binet’s test. • B) mental age / chronological age X 100. • C) the total score on Binet’s test. • D) chronological age X mental age / 100.

  13. 12. Lewis Terman made changes to an earlier test, established new norms and published it as the first American intelligence test, called the: • A) Binet Intelligence Test. • B) Wechsler Intelligence Scales. • C) Stanford-Binet Intelligence Test. • D) Alpha-Beta Test of Intelligence.

  14. 13. Today’s IQ is different from the original in that: • A) it is no longer calculated with a formula. • B) it is based on the average performance for each age group. • C) it is no longer an “intelligence quotient”. • D) all of the above.

  15. 14. When you took your driver’s test, you were taking a type of test called a(n): • A) achievement test. • B) aptitude test. • C) skill test. • D) self-study test.

  16. 15. The Wechsler Scales have the important advantage over the Stanford-Binet in that the WAIS offers: • A) a more accurate measure of g. • B) several scores other than the general IQ. • C) easier administration. • D) a more reliable instrument.

  17. 16. A subject will be administered the WAIS or the WISC, depending on: • A) whether or not the subject can read. • B) the primary language of the subject. • C) the age of the subject. • D) the training of the administrator.

  18. 17. Standardized tests such as the WAIS follow a bell-shaped pattern of scores called the: • A) average distribution. • B) normal curve. • C) bell scatter. • D) normative spread.

  19. 18. Because the WAIS and WISC are standardized, 68% of the IQ scores achieved on them are between: • A) 95 to 105. • B) 90 to 110. • C) 85 to 115. • D) 80 to 120.

  20. 19. When a measurement yields the same results each time it is used, it has a high: • A) reliability. • B) validity. • C) correlation. • D) respectability.

  21. 20. Mental Retardation is defined by difficulty living independently, and an IQ of: • A) less than 100. • B) 70 or less. • C) 85 or less. • D) 60 or less.

  22. 21. As adopted children grow up, their intelligence: • A) varies considerably according to their environment. • B) is much more like their adoptive parents. • C) is much more like their biological parents. • D) is nothing like either their adoptive or biological parents.

  23. 22. Project Head Start’s effectiveness: • A) dissipates over time. • B) can help disadvantaged children prepare for school. • C) has long lasting benefit on emotional intelligence. • D) all of the above.

  24. 23. The finding that Asian students significantly outperform North American students in math achievement tests is because: • A) Asians are genetically superior in math. • B) Asian students spend much more time studying math. • C) American students watch too much TV. • D) American students have more important things to do.

  25. 24: Girls are inherently better than boys at all of the following except: • A) spelling. • B) mentally dealing with 3 dimensional objects. • C) learning and remembering words. • D) finding things.

  26. 25. The finding that women scored higher on math tests when no males were present gives evidence for the phenomenon of: • A) physical attraction. • B) gender roles. • C) stereotype threat. • D) nothing; females are never good at math.
