Psych 655 – measures of intelligence presentation

Select two assessments of intelligence and two achievement tests.

Prepare a 12- to 15-slide presentation, including detailed speaker notes, about your selected instruments. In your analysis, address the following:

• Critique the major definitions of intelligence. Determine which theory of intelligence best fits your selected instruments. Explain how the definition and the measures are related.

• Evaluate the measures of intelligence you selected for reliability, validity, normative procedures, and bias.

• Compare and contrast your selected intelligence and achievement assessments. How are the goals of the tests similar and different? How are the tests used? What are the purposes of giving these differing tests?
