Assignment for Day 3
A look inside some
IQ tests
Readings:
- Deary
uses Dataset 1 to help answer the question, "Is there one ‘intelligence’ or many?" (As he notes, this
study of the WAIS-III is just one example of many other such studies.)
- Which particular
results (statistics) in the study are relevant--and how--to
answering this one-or-many question? Please be
specific!
- What answer did
Dataset 1 provide, if any, to the one-many
question? Explain. Please be specific.
2.
To what extent did the public opinions you
documented agree with Deary's conclusions? (Note: Deary is providing
just one example of many such studies getting essentially the same
results.)
