Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the intelligence of children who have become public charges. The author examines what sets them apart from ordinary children through mechanical tasks, reading passages, and Binet-Simon tests. This book further categorizes the children into two groups: those who perform poorly in tests due to lack of opportunity, and those who demonstrate intrinsic intellectual deficiencies. The author notes that while the ability for abstract intellect does not significantly differ between these two groups, the mechanical ability does. This distinction illuminates the role of environmental and genetic factors in shaping intelligence, offering valuable insights into the nature of intellectual development and the impact of social factors on educational opportunities.
