Correct Answer - Option 2 : Group tests
Intelligence tests can be defined as a test to evaluate the general level of cognitive functions and intellectual ability.
- During World War II in 1917, a committee of the American Psychological Association prescribed the use of intelligence tests for the rapid classification of army personnel.
- In view of this, American Army psychologists developed two tests: (i) Army Alpha and (ii) Army Beta.
-
Both the tests were group tests in which the first was a language test, while the second was a non-language-performance test.
Army Alpha Test |
- In which the first was a language test, while the second was a non-language-performance test.
- These are primarily designed for mass testing that is, they can be administered to more than one individual at a time.
- tIt was a written test made of true/false and multiple-choice questions that assessed the ability to follow directions, arithmetic, and analogy.
