An array of scores measuring specific mental abilities

Reference no: EM13742085

Around age 6, IQ becomes more stable than it was at earlier ages, and it correlates well with academic achievement. Intelligence tests provide an overall score (the IQ), which represents general intelligence, as well as an array of scores measuring specific mental abilities. In this discussion we will explore these concepts further.

As you create your discussion post, consider the following:

By the end of this discussion, you will be able to:

Summarize findings on intelligence, including academic, cultural, and environmental implications.
Complete the following:

First, visit the website https://iqtest.com, which contains an online intelligence test. After taking the test, answer the following questions: Do you think your performance on the IQ test is an accurate assessment of your intellectual ability? Why or why not? How might your educational experiences, culture, and home environment have influenced your performance? Do you believe this test would accurately predict academic achievement?
