Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

4.5 Intelligence Testing

front 1

intelligence test

back 1

a method for assessing an individual's mental aptitudes and comparing them with those of others, using numerical scores

front 2

achievement test

back 2

a test designed to assess what a person has learned

front 3

aptitude test

back 3

a test designed to predict a person's future performance; aptitude is the capacity to learn

front 4

mental age

back 4

a measure of intelligence test performance devised by Binet; the chronological age that most typically corresponds to a given level of performance. Thus, a child who does as well as the average 8-year-old is said to have a mental age of 8

front 5

Stanford-Binet

back 5

the widely used American revision of Binet's original intelligence test

front 6

intelligence quotient (IQ)

back 6

defined originally as the ratio of mental age to chronical age multiplied by 100. On contemporary intelligence tests, the average performance for a given age is assigned a score of 100

front 7

Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale

back 7

the WAIS is the most widely used intelligence test; contains verbal and performance (nonverbal) subtests

front 8

standardization

back 8

defining meaningful scores by comparison with the performance of a pretested group

front 9

normal curve

back 9

a symmetrical, bell-shaped curve that describes the distribution of many types of data; most scores fall near the mean, or average, and fewer and fewer near the extremes

front 10

reliability

back 10

the extent to which a test yields consistent results, as assessed by the consistency of scores on two halves of the test, or on retesting

front 11

validity

back 11

the extent to which a test measures or predicts what it is supposed to

front 12

content validity

back 12

the extent to which a test samples the behavior that is of interest (such as a driving test that samples driving tasks)

front 13

predictive validity

back 13

the success with which a test predicts the behavior it is designed to predict; it is assessed by computing the correlation between test scores and the criterion behavior
