Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins of group testing, a method of examining intelligence that quickly and effectively assesses large numbers of people. It became a necessity during the First World War when the U.S. military needed to quickly assess recruits. This method required creating tests that were easy to administer, score, and standardized so that results could be compared. The author explores various types of group tests, including analogies, definitions, and arithmetic problems, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses.
