- Kevin Smith Very accurate test though, only 1 point off of other tests. From the perspective of a PhD candidate in statistics, a very nice laypersons intro to the normal curve.
- Aaron Camp Standard Deviation The standard deviation is kind of the "mean of the mean," and often can help you find the story behind the data. To understand this concept, it can help to learn about what statisticians call normal distribution of data. A normal distribution of data means that most of the examples in a set of data are close to the "average," while relatively few examples tend to one extreme or the other. Let's say you are writing a story about nutrition. You need to look at people's typical daily calorie consumption. Like most data, the numbers for people's typical consumption probably will turn out to be normally distributed. That is, for most people, their consumption will be close to the mean, while fewer people eat a lot more or a lot less than the mean.

Experimentation with army IQ Test
During the first World War, IQ testing advances greatly when Robert Yerkes, a Harvard professor, persuaded the army to let him administer IQ tests to nearly two million recruits. Yerkes wants to use tests to choose officer candidates and help the IQ movement build up a record of statistical evidence. The resulting Alpha and Beta tests mark the first time an IQ test has mass results. The goal of IQ testers is to select the most intelligent people of society, not necessarily to reform education.

    Gifted Children: the Myth
    ... Home Older children who may be gifted If your child is already in primary or secondary school when you start to think he or she is gifted, or teachers or friends suggest she or he may be gifted, it is important to have an IQ test carried out by a Psychologist experienced in testing gifted children if you want to be certain that your child's needs are being met, and that she or he is being catered for in a way that will allow him or her to reach his or her potential. Check the information about IQ tests that are suitable for gifted children on the page " Testing Gifted Children " - the section "Using the correct test" about halfway down the page. If you think, or if it's suggested to you, that your child may be gifted, and your child is in the normal school class for his or her age, it's likely that there are problems. These may be obvious, and causing major difficulties at home, at school, or both; there may be no doubt that an IQ test should be carried out. However, depending on the personality of the child, problems at school may be subtle, and may seem to you not greatly different from the problems many children have at school. In reality I believe that unhappiness and problems experienced by any child at school should always be investigated and understood if possible. It should be possible for almost all children to have a reasonably happy and helpful experience at school, and if this is not happening I believe strongly that the causes of any problems need to be discovered, and whatever measures may be necessary taken to deal with them. Definitely if your child has problems at school and the suggestion is made that he or she is gifted, it is very important that either a multidisciplinary assessment be carried out, or at least an IQ assessment. No good can come of leaving a gifted child to struggle unrecognised with whatever problems he or she experiences at school.

    Dealing with LD
    Assessment
    The procedures for assessing learning disabilities are varied. They depend upon astute observation and asking the "right" questions (i.e. being able to differentiate between verbal and non-verbal problems, for example) to determine the type of learning disability affecting the individual. In all cases, given that the current LD definition states those with learning disabilities possess, at the very least, a normal level of intelligence, an IQ test or some other measure of intelligence is administered first. If, after an IQ test has been conducted, concerns remain about a child reading at grade level, a series of tests designed to measure specific academic skills such as word and sentence reading, comprehension, vocabulary and spelling, must be carried out. This will determine patterns of learning and performance problems associated with reading. Likewise, if concerns exist about a child demonstrating mathematical skills at grade level, then the assessment and application tests would focus on math-related knowledge. In this case, reading-related tests would also be conducted to determine if the apparent math disability is actually the result of a reading or language problem. General aspects of learning can also be measured and used to determine the level at which individuals might be expected to apply adaptive strategies. A number of relatively new assessment technologies are able to evaluate a learner's ability to recognize and represent meaning in different forms. These new technologies are also able to identify an individual's tendencies to learn from their mistakes. Results from these types of tests provide important information about the adaptive nature of learners. See

    IQ Test: Where Does It Come From and
    What Does It Measure?

    SUSAN DU PLESSIS, B.D., B.A. Hons (psychology)
    The most important criterion in diagnosing a child as learning disabled is the IQ test. The aim of an IQ test is to measure the intelligence of a child, which supposedly is an indication of the child's potential. But where does the test come from and does it really measure potential? Intelligence testing began in earnest in France, when in 1904 psychologist Alfred Binet was commissioned by the French government to find a method to differentiate between children who were intellectually normal and those who were inferior. The purpose was to put the latter into special schools where they would receive more individual attention. In this way the disruption they caused in the education of intellectually normal children could be avoided. This led to the development of the Binet Scale, also known as the Simon-Binet Scale H. H. Goddard, director of research at Vineland Training School in New Jersey, translated Binet's work into English and advocated a more general application of the Simon-Binet Scale Unlike Binet, Goddard considered intelligence a solitary, fixed and inborn entity that could be measured.

    The best single book mentioned here is Mackintosh, N. J. (1998) IQ and Human Intelligence because it includes a masterful review of the primary research literature and is very clear and accurate. Good for reading after Mackintosh (1998) is Sternberg (2000) Handbook of Intelligence , a collection of articles by many of the leading scholars of the field, which also includes a superb set of references to the primary literature. Another good choice for reading sooner rather than later is The International Handbook of Giftedness and Talent , which includes articles from several different countries and includes many authors well-known in the gifted child literature. The books listed below are listed in order of newest to oldest, and important journal articles are sometimes mentioned in the annotations for related books. Enjoy your reading. Please let me know if you have suggestions for other good books on these subjects.
