Psychometrics/Factor Analysis
|
Measuring the Mind (SAT)
FA: Clumping/Analyzing relationships (math&reading) Hierarchial Model: FA - more specific |
|
|
Cognitive Approach
(unified and multiple intelligences) |
Information Processing abilities: mental abilities, related to speed of neurotransmitters
Unified-single-overarchy influence Diversified-multiple-diff. intell. |
|
|
Unified Theories:
Galton & Normal Curve Spearman's g&s factors Cattell's fluid&crystallized intell |
Galton-first attempt to measure mind- passed down through genes
Genetic Origins: sensory descrimination/reaction time (brass) Mental Speed: fruitless, lacking validity but when collected large amounts of data, bell shape Eugenics: breeding in a certain way, can make society(mental speed) Spearman: Develpoed Factor Analysis g-general mental ability, explains performance on intell test s-ability for particular kind of test, differences Cattell: Fluid- ability to perceive relationships indep of previous practices(natural ability 2 reason(ind) Crystallized: Knowledge/ability derived from previous exp.(cultural pracice,tools) |
|
|
Multiple Intelligence
Sternbergs Triarchic |
Sternberg
analytical: understanded mental operations behind planning/execution (behavior outside of lab) Creative-problem solving in env. Practical: putting ability to use in everyday events |
|
|
Multiple Intelligence
Garner |
Gardner
Intell all over (pro-athlete) "an inte"-ability that permits indivual to solve problem/fashion product that are valued in a cultural setting. EIGHT: 1) Musical intell. 2) bodily-kinesthetics:athletes,surgeon 3) Logical-math:scientists,prob solvers 4) Leguistics:great writters,exp verbal 5) Spacial:Superior Navig, 3D 6) Interpersonal:others moods Intrapersonal:great insight in self 7) Naturalist:observe,interact w/ diverse species,recog patterns,biolo 8) Naturalists:Darwin |

|
Stanford/Binet Intell Tests
|
Luis Terman: mental/chrono X 100
mental: chronological that fits a childs level performance of mental ability |
|
|
Reliability
|
measure of consistancy of test results producing similar results
(2) |
|
|
test-retest
|
give 2 same group on different occasions-compare scores
|
|
|
Internal Consistanct
|
the closer the test-retest comes to a perfect +1.00, the higher the reliability of test
|
|
|
Content Validity
|
content of test samples broadly across domain of interest
|
|
|
Predictive Validity
|
predict this outcome adequately (SAT)
|
|
|
construct validity
|
how well a test applies to a particular theoretical scheme or construct
|
|
|
standardization
|
testing,scoring,interpretation remains the same throughout admin of test
|
|
|
Nature
|
same enviromet/experiences: reliable differences in IQ to inherited factors- genetics
|
|
|
Nurture
|
same genes-diff intell scores: enviro is responsible not genes
|
|
|
Twin Studies
|
search for twins raised together/ seperated @ birth...
effects of enviro are similar for twins raised together but diff when raised apart |
|
|
Bouchard and McGue
|
IQs similar in twins no matter enviro
|
|
|
heredibility
|
math index represents extent 2 which IQ diff can be accounted for by genetic factors
|
