The standard measurement of intelligence for an adult
Assignment 3.b: Intelligence Field Assignment
Summary:
Intelligence is a complex part of our identity that stems from many
factors, both biological and environmental. The standard
measurement of intelligence for an adult is an IQ test, which can vary
in the way that it is administered, scored, and applied.
For this assignment, please take this online IQ test, published by
Mensa of Luxembourg. You do not have to give any personal
information and you will not have to click on any additional pages or
websites to view your results. It will not provide you with an actual IQ
score or range. It will not send any information to me about your test
or score.
In your paper, please answer the following questions:
• Describe your experience taking the test and any feelings you had
about it’s level of difficulty.
• How does this test experience match up with any past tests of
intelligence to which you have been exposed?
• How was your view of intelligence shaped as a child and young
adult by adults around you? Did anyone shape your views of your
own level of intelligence?
• What factors do you think bear the most influence on how our
intelligence is fostered or stunted as child?
Be sure to use at least 2-3 sentences to answer each question
in the prompt. Your paper must be at least one page in
length, double spaced with normal margins and font size,
not including footers and headers.
