  1. 1The Psychometric Model of Intelligence uses [blank_start]factor analysis[blank_end] to the results of different [blank_start]intelligence[blank_end] tests. It is a way to measure [blank_start]intelligence[blank_end]. Proposes that intelligence is made up of [blank_start]general[blank_end] intelligence which is made up of a cluster of special [blank_start]abilities[blank_end]. This explains why there are individual [blank_start]differences[blank_end] in intelligence. Factor analysis is a [blank_start]statistical[blank_end] method to separate intelligence into several distinct [blank_start]abilities[blank_end]. This helps us to understand the [blank_start]structure[blank_end] of intelligence.
    1. Afactor analysis
    2. Bintelligence
    3. Cintelligence
    4. Dgeneral
    5. Eabilities
    6. Fdifferences
    7. Gstatistical
    8. Habilities
    9. Istructure
  2. 2Which model of intelligence describes intelligence as a physiological phenomenon?
    1. APsychometric Model
    2. BBiological Approach
    3. CContextual Model
  3. 3Which are the two ways the brain has been studied in the biological approach?
    1. ACase studies
    2. BAutopsies
    3. COperations
    4. DNeuroimaging
  4. 4A decline in intellectual functioning may be evident in patients with a damaged:
    1. APrefrontal Cortex
    2. Bamygdala
    3. CFrontal Lobe
    4. DCorpus Callosum
  5. 5There is no correlation between IQ and brain size (grey matter)
    1. ATrue
    2. BFalse
  6. 6What can have an impact on brain size?
    1. AHeredity
    2. BExercise
    3. CLearning difficult skills
    4. DAge
  7. 7Neuroimaging Research into Intelligence and Brain structure involves measuring [blank_start]brain activity[blank_end] while patients are completing an IQ test. It was found that [blank_start]more[blank_end] intelligent people have learned to use their brains more [blank_start]efficiently[blank_end], and therefore require less [blank_start]energy[blank_end] to solve difficult problems.
    1. Abrain activity
    2. Bbrain structure
    3. Cintelligence
    4. Dmore
    5. Eless
    6. Fefficiently
    7. Geffectively
    8. Hincorrectly
    9. Ienergy
    10. Jeffort
    11. Kability
  8. 8The contextual model of intelligence suggests that intelligence is relevant to the [blank_start]culture[blank_end] in which it is defined and [blank_start]measured[blank_end]. Intelligence is only understood in view of the [blank_start]society[blank_end] it comes from - cultural. People in different cultures have different ideas about what it means to be '[blank_start]smart[blank_end]' or 'clever' or to [blank_start]adapt to[blank_end] one's environment. It takes into account the different notions of [blank_start]cleverness[blank_end] in different [blank_start]communities[blank_end], and the effects of the culture in which a [blank_start]child[blank_end] is raised. It does not take into account the fact that some individuals are [blank_start]naturally better[blank_end] at responding to various [blank_start]intellectual challenges[blank_end] than others.
