Responda
practical intelligence
fluid intelligence
crystallized intelligence

analytical intelligence
Questão 6
Questão
Dorinda tells you that her 12-year-old cousin recently completed an intelligence test and that her cousin’s deviation IQ score was 75, but she is not sure what this means. You should tell her that her cousin:
Responda
answered 25% of the questions correctly on the test
scored below the mean for 12-year-olds
scored above the mean for 12-year-olds
answered 75% of the questions correctly on the test

the Mozart effect
stereotype threat
Questão 9
Questão
Mr. and Mrs. Matthews are excited because two-year-old Lauren just completed the Toddler Test of Academic Potential (TTAP), and the results indicate that her current IQ is over 150. They want to start a college savings fund right away to ensure Lauren will be able to attend one of the top private universities. You tell Mr. and Mrs. Matthews that they might want to wait because:
Responda
before the age of 3 or 4, it is difficult to get an accurate assessment of intellectual ability
Lauren’s IQ will probably not stabilize until she is at least 14 or 15, so she will need to be tested again, once she is in high school
typically IQ scores from toddlerhood actually increase, so Lauren’s actual IQ is probably closer to 200
typically IQ scores from toddlerhood decrease by at least half, so Lauren’s actual IQ is probably closer to 75
Questão 10
Questão
Women may perform worse on math tests when they believe they are taking a test that men tend to do better on than women. This is an example of:
