Synopsis
Excerpt from The Growth of Intelligence: A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Princeton University in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
In our own day even if one escapes the pitfalls of mental processes one still feels obliged to acknowledge the traditional distinctions of intelligence, feeling and Will. The distinctions, to be sure, become daily less obvious, yet even the most ardent of the advocates of intelligence as the fundamental mental process persist in keeping the distinction.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Delving into the intricacies of intellectual development, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of intelligence and intellect. The author, an esteemed expert in psychology, scrutinizes the work of renowned scholars like Binet, Stern, and Terman, examining their theories and contributions to the field. The book explores the concept of intelligence as a capacity for adaptation to novel situations, distinguishing it from intellect, which refers to the actual understanding acquired through learning. It presents a detailed account of average normal mental growth, highlighting the gradual increase in intellectual abilities observed in children as they develop. The author challenges traditional assumptions about the constancy of the Intelligence Quotient (IQ), presenting evidence that intelligence may not remain static over time. Individual variability and the influence of factors beyond genetics are emphasized, challenging the notion that intelligence is solely determined by heredity. The book also explores the complexities of intellectual growth in both feeble-minded and superior individuals, examining the unique patterns of development observed in these populations. Ultimately, the book underscores the significance of understanding intellectual growth for both theoretical psychology and practical applications in fields like education and human welfare. By examining the nuances of intelligence and its development, this book illuminates the complexities of human cognition and provides valuable insights for understanding individual differences in intellectual abilities.
