Excerpt from The Measurement of Intelligence: An Explanation of and a Complete Guide for the Use of the Stanford Revision and Extension of the Binet-Simon Intelligence Scale
The present volume appeals to the editor of this series as one of the most significant books, viewed from the standpoint of the future of our educational theory and practice, that has been issued in years. Not only does the volume set forth, in language so simple that the layman can easily understand, the large importance for public education of a careful measurement of the intelligence of children, but it also describes the tests which are to be given and the entire procedure of giving them. In a clear and easy style the author sets forth scientific facts of far-reaching educational importance, facts which it has cost him, his students, and many other scientific workers, years of painstaking labor to accumulate.
Only very recently, practically only within the past half-dozen years, have scientific workers begun to appreciate fully the importance of intelligence tests as a guide to educational procedure, and up to the present we have been able to make but little use of such tests in our schools. The conception in itself has been new, and the testing procedure has been more or less unrefined and technical. The following somewhat popular presentation of the idea and of the methods involved, itself based on a scientific monograph which the author is publishing elsewhere, serves for the first time to set forth in simple language the technical details of giving such intelligence tests.
The educational significance of the results to be obtained from careful measurements of the intelligence of children can hardly be overestimated.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book revolutionizes understanding of a child's intelligence level, replacing traditional methods, and establishing a new, extremely useful metric: intelligence quotient or I.Q. I.Q. remains widely used thanks to the author's contribution of a practical method for measuring intelligence and mental age. The author follows on from Binet and Simon, developing their original intelligence scale into a system equally applicable for assessing intelligence in American classrooms, and creating a guide to the use of their method, including a detailed explanation of the individual tests. The book's insightful breakdown of intelligence levels and its component functions provides not only a new tool for school grading, but also a method for predicting future performance, opening new avenues for pedagogical as well as social welfare applications.
