IQ

The old rule of thumb was that a person needed a IQ of 115 to be in college, but that has certainly changed with all of the " underwater basket weaving '' courses and degrees now being offered!

The old school of psychology refers to early approaches such as structuralism and functionalism, while the new school encompasses contemporary perspectives like cognitive psychology, behavioral psychology, and positive psychology. The old school focused on understanding the structure of the mind, while the new school emphasizes behavior, cognition, emotions, and mental health outcomes.

IQ tests are typically not reliable for children under the age of 6, as they are still developing cognitively and emotionally. Instead of focusing on IQ at such a young age, it is more important to provide a supportive and stimulating environment to help children grow and learn.

Short answer is 90-110. Your score is an IQ score that is based on age, education level and others with similar demographics. 100 is roughly average for people with your level of education and age.

Ideally, the IQ score is independent of the subject's age.

172 is a totally unbelievable IQ score for anybody; before it is accepted as fact,

the test should probably be repeated.

Even if the figure was a misprint for 127, that would still be a high IQ BUT it is important to remember IQ is not everything. Standard IQ tests tend to be limited to testing skills with various numerical, lexical and pattern puzzles; and are not a reliable guide to the subject's learning ability or future academic results.

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.

When a need is satisfied according to Maslow's theory, an individual's attention shifts to fulfilling the next higher level need in the hierarchy. As lower level needs are met, people progress towards fulfilling higher level needs such as social belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. This phenomenon is known as the hierarchy of needs.

The widely used American revision of Alfred Binet's original intelligence test was developed by Lewis Terman at Stanford University. Terman's version of the test, known as the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, provided a standardized method for measuring intelligence in individuals.

What IQ tests measure is a certain type of potential. That potential still needs to be developed and nurtured by the person who has it. That person may not have the inclination or desire to do so. Not everyone who has a potential talent also possesses the desire to do something with it.

One person may have a wonderful God-given singing voice, but may have no interest in music, and no desire to perform. Another person may have the perfect physique to be a high jumper, but may hate sports. You can probably think of other examples. Having potential is just a beginning.

The IQ tests we have now may predict which people have a certain type of intellectual potential, but they don't necessarily predict who will become a good teacher, a good manager, a good president, or a good parent. Some critics say that the only thing IQ tests can really predict is who will do well on IQ tests.

It is not appropriate to use the term "retarded" in this context, as it is considered offensive. Instead, a person's cognitive abilities are typically assessed using standardized tests to determine their mental age. This individual's mental age would depend on their specific cognitive strengths and weaknesses, as well as any underlying conditions they may have. It is best to consult with a qualified healthcare professional for an accurate assessment.

100 is the average IQ more is above average, less is below. However, because people have become more educated and are, in general, smarter than in the past, the average keeps moving upwards. An IQ that was above average forty years ago, might equate to slightly below average today. As far a a current score goes, 137 is well above average.

IQ scores are generally correlated with cognitive abilities such as problem-solving, reasoning, memory, and processing speed. They have also been found to be associated with academic achievement and job performance. However, it is important to note that IQ scores do not capture all aspects of intelligence and should be interpreted with caution.

Binet and Simon designed a test of intellectual abilities in order to identify students who may need additional help in school. Their test aimed to measure a child's mental age compared to their chronological age, providing a tool for educators to tailor instruction to individual needs.

Both emotional intelligence (EQ) and intelligence quotient (IQ) are important, but EQ is often considered to be more important in determining success in personal and professional relationships. EQ helps individuals understand and manage their own emotions and those of others, leading to better interpersonal connections and communication skills. IQ, on the other hand, measures cognitive abilities and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic and technical proficiency.

Nathan Leopold had an IQ of 210, which is considered to be in the range of exceptionally gifted or genius level.

A score of 129 on an IQ test for an 8-year-old boy would generally be considered above average. This would indicate that the boy has strong cognitive abilities compared to others in his age group. It's important to note that IQ scores are just one measure of intelligence and may not capture the full range of a child's abilities.

Yes. It's above average. And IQ has nothing to do with age. An average IQ is around 100, no matter what a person's age is.

It doesn't determine it. But there is a correlation. People with Blonde hair tend to score highest(only by two points higher on average than someone with brown.

But here's the averages based on hair color)

Blonde:104

Brown:102

Red:101

Black:97

It's not really a big difference.

There is no specific average IQ for supermodels as intelligence varies among individuals regardless of their profession. IQ scores are not correlated with a specific job or field, and intelligence cannot be accurately measured by occupation.

An IQ score of 120 is above average, and would, statistically, place the individual around the 70th percentile. That means that the individual would be, on average, smarter than approximately 70% of all other individuals, or in this case, 70% of all 9 year-olds who have taken the test. Age is not a relevant factor beyond scoring of the test as IQ is considered a static personality trait.

Wow, things are gonna get tough for him as he gets older and has to spell, add, drive and stuff, Rad...

To be up front with you, you should not hate no one! You should forgive them of what they did or didn't do (not forget but forgive) and let God Deal with them. If you can not forgive them then you are basically saying that you are above God, God hates no one he hates the sin that they do.

Another excellent reason to strive not to hate is that hate is the poison that destroys the hater, not the hated.

It is never easy to overcome some of our basic emotions, but as you try, you become a stronger, more powerful person.

That's three reasons to make the effort!
