Multiple Intelligence Survey My review of this intelligence test is that it was very accurate but very awkward. To critique the design of the test I would say that it was very lengthy, compartmentalized, and inconvenient. The length of the test wasn’t grossly excessive however it was a little long for my attention span. It wasn’t the amount of the questions maybe, but the fact that they were grouped which gave it a much segmented feel, which probably could not be avoided. The real oddity with this test was the inconvenience of leafing back and forth to find what categories I was most connected to. I didn’t really detest the exam I’m simply stating my thoughts. The questions that were asked on this exam seemed to be very pertinent to the topic beings examined. I’m confident that there was solid research done as to which questions would be best asked to get the most accurate results. I have done other tests regarding emotional intelligence similar to this one and this one was very accurate. I was found to be strong in my interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence. This is true. Self-awareness is a learned behavior of mine. I practice a specific type of introspection regularly. Also I am very “people smart” as well. The descriptions given at the end of the exam did a nice job of explaining exactly what each form of intelligence is. I enjoyed this exam and over all give it a nine out of ten.

    I do not have any negative feelings towards this IQ test. However, I feel the test was too general, inaccurate, and biased that I do not think it is good to compare myself with other people. I feel this way because the test is timed and based on some personal information. I do not think you can compare it to others because everyone tests…

    I completed the free IQ test at the above address and scored 124. Overall, I was satisfied that the results were accurate, and did not detect any sort of gender or racial bias to the questions it contained. If the test has any bias in it, I think it's a bias against unintelligent people as some of the questions are rather complex, and accordingly, would be difficult to solve for people who ultimately score low on it. I suppose that is to be expected, though; an intelligence test would certainly appear to discriminate towards the unintelligent as far as what scores it awards and to whom.…

    I would have to say yes that feel the results were accurate. Some of the questions I had to really put some thought into, and I tend to like those types of exercises because it makes me feel like I am actually putting my brain to use. IQ tests cannot be statistically demonstrated to measure innate intelligence because there is no way to verify their accuracy without changing the common definitions of intelligence to be a list of quantifiable real-life criteria to test accuracy. No such list can match the common definitions of innate intelligence, or even come close because the intelligence component of such criteria, free of bias, cannot be defined, separated, and quantified. Imagine that person A) goes to a good school, where they often practice questions similar to IQ tests. Sometimes they even take IQ tests. Person B goes to a bad school, they don't practice similar questions or IQ tests. Both are presented an IQ test. It is possible that person B) is more intelligent, but not having practiced an IQ test is not prepared for it. They are expected to do worse and probably will. I believe that IQ tests only measure one aspect of intelligence and may not be valid across every person. Some people may be more skilled in certain areas, and some people may not have had the background to excel in IQ tests. So, having IQ tests to compare different people is not very…

    Over the past few days, I classical conditioned a pet and I made sure that what I was doing was very safe and not harmful to the pet in any way. The pet that I classical conditioned was my friend’s guinea pig and my goal was for the guinea pig to form an association between receiving food and the banging of the cabinet door where the guinea pig’s food is stored by its cage. First, I just gave the guinea pig food like he usually gets. The normal response of the guinea pig was to go and eat the food and that is what he did. After that, I just slammed the cabinet shut where the food is stored and I did not give the guinea pig any food. After that, I gave the guinea pig food and at the same time that I gave the guinea pig food, I also slammed the cabinet door shut. I repeated this many times so that the guinea pig got used to hearing the cabinet shut when he got food. After awhile, I just started to close the cabinet door loudly and when I did this, I noticed that the guinea pig went to his food dish and began looking for food even though there was no food in the dish. This took many trials, but I did get it to work a few times in the end. In this example, there are examples of a UCS, UCR, NS, CS, and CR. The UCS in this example is the food that the guinea pig always eats, the UCR is the natural instinct of the guinea pig eating the food when it is given to him, the NS is the slamming of the cabinet door, the CS is the slamming of the cabinet too, and the CR is when the guinea pig looks for food and tried to find it to eat by just hearing the cabinet slam shut. I also included an extension in my experiment. The extension that I included was discrimination. I incorporated discrimination into this experiment…

    I don’t really see how anyone can be compared to each other from these types of test because everyone is different. We all learn differently, we have all been taught differently, and some people are book smart, and some people are street smart. I have personally avoided taking these kinds of test, I have been asked to take them before and I have refused. To me intelligence should not be measured by math problems, reading skills, or any of these types of learning, but by a person’s experience with life, this takes intelligence, to learn from…

    Throughout the decades of time, society has been continuously determining the perception of what it is to be "beautiful." The American standard of beauty is often reflected upon advertisements that convey an unrealistic expectation for most everyday women. Whereas, teenagers have grown to interpret advertisements as a model for how they should appear physically. Marilyn Monroe was perceived as the epitome of beauty in the 1950s. The well-known sex symbol was recognized because of her curvaceous build. But for instance, Twiggy, a popular model in the midst of the 1960s, later set a misconstrued standard to what was beautiful. With the rising of her stardom, the glamorization of being thin was beginning to take a turn on a more positive note. That is until the famous 90s heroin chic model, Kate Moss, hit the scene taking the modeling industry by storm in an unhealthy manner with her campaign "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels." As time continues to inevitably move forward in American culture, as will the image and conception of what beauty truly is in the eyes of our society.…

    The Wonderlic Test

    The psychometric assessment test I evaluated for this project is the Wonderlic Cognitive Ability Test. This test is a popular intelligence test used to assess the aptitude of prospective employees for learning and problem solving in a range of occupations. A man named Eldon F. Wonderlic originally created the test in 1936 and throughout the years alterations and new versions of the test have been created. The test is actually quite simple; the participant is required to answer 50 multiple-choice questions in just 12 minutes in a written or online format. When the test is complete the score you receive is simply the number of questions you got right. If the 12-minute time limit runs out before completing all 50 questions any question not answered will be considered incorrect. A score of 20 would indicate average intelligence, while a score of 10 suggests literacy. The test has become very popular due to the fact that the NFL uses this test for all incoming rookies prior to the NFL Draft.…

    In 1983 a professor of education at Harvard University, Dr. Howard Gardner, developed the theory of multiple intelligences. This theory states that there are eight different ways in which a person is intelligent. These different forms of intelligence are as follows: linguistic, or word smart; logical-mathematic, or reasoning/numbers smart; spatial, or picture smart; bodily-kinesthetic, or body smart; musical, or music smart; intrapersonal, or self-smart; and naturalist, or nature smart (“Multiple Intelligences” para. 1-2). It is not difficult to pinpoint which of these intelligences standardized testing primarily measures. For students who are not linguistically or mathematically gifted, the tests do not accurately show the students’…

    I think moral intelligence would be equivalent to these two intelligences because in order to make moral decisions, one has to understand other 's points of views as well as knowledge and motivation to do the right thing. However, unlike the two current intelligences, moral intelligence would need to include the ability to distinguish between right and wrong and the courage to make moral decisions. (Guignon, 2010)…

    Some of the most popular psychological tests today are of intelligence. The dictionary’s definition of intelligence is the capacity for learning, reasoning and similar forms of mental activity; aptitude in grasping truths, relationships, facts, meanings, etc. It also states that, intelligence is the capacity for understanding; ability to perceive, and comprehend meaning. Alfred Binet and his colleague Theodore Simon introduced the first intelligence test called the Binet-Simon Scale. This test was originally designed to help identify those school children who needed extra help. However, Binet himself had doubts on this test and the success of measuring…

    The definition of intelligence is simple; it is an individual's capacity to learn, reason, and solve problems. What is complex is how we measure that capacity and use that measurement. One of the original uses of intelligence testing in the early 1900s was to separate or segregate those individuals who were deemed of low intelligence.…
