Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon created the first standardized intelligence test in 1916.
Francis Galton made the first attempt to create such a test before them, but was unsuccessful in creating a test because he could find no correlation between physical development and mental development.
Binet and Simon created a test that would require participants to give answers that would relate to their "mental age", meaning that the more advanced the question, the more likely an older participant would be able to answer correctly. This mental age reflected the mental ability of a child. If a child had a higher mental age than his/her chronological age, (for example, an 11 year old scores a mental age of 13) then the child was considered gifted or mentally advanced. If a child had a lower mental score than his/her chronological age, (for example, an 11 year old scores a mental age of 10) then the child was seen as underdeveloped or mentally retarded.
The world's first standardized intelligence test was developed by Alfred Binet and his colleague Theodore Simon in France in 1905. This test was later refined and translated into English by Lewis Terman in the United States, leading to the creation of the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale.
The first test was invented by Baylor Delshprau in the year 1423!
Alfred Binet, in collaboration with Theodore Simon, developed the first systematic intelligence test in France in the early 1900s. The test was designed to assess a child's mental age compared to their chronological age. This test laid the foundation for modern intelligence testing.
The first modern test of intelligence, known as the Binet-Simon scale, was developed in France by Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon in 1905. It was created to help identify children who might need special assistance in school.
The concept of Intelligence Quotient (IQ) was first proposed by French psychologist Alfred Binet in the early 20th century, around 1904. Binet developed the first intelligence test to assess mental abilities and measure intelligence levels in children.
The first effective tests of mental faculties were developed by Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon in 1905 with the creation of the Binet-Simon intelligence scale. This test was designed to measure a child's mental age in relation to their chronological age and is considered the foundation for modern intelligence testing.

The first important intelligence test was developed by French psychologist Alfred Binet and his colleague Theodore Simon in the early 20th century. The test, known as the Binet-Simon scale, was designed to measure cognitive abilities in children and identify those who may need extra help in school.
The concept of mental age was developed by French psychologist, Alfred Binet. He created the first practical intelligence test called the Binet-Simon scale.
The first computers developed by British intelligence at Bletchley Park were designed to break the German Enigma codes.
Cuneiform is an ancient writing system used in Mesopotamia, made up of various wedge-shaped characters. It was primarily used to write in Sumerian, Akkadian, and other languages of the ancient Near East. This system was inscribed on clay tablets and was one of the earliest known forms of writing.
