An Application of the Binet Measuring Scale to Second and Third Grade Children (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from An Application of the Binet Measuring Scale to Second and Third Grade Children
Isabel Lawrence, of the State Normal school,st. Cloud, Minn., studied the Binet definition tests.the definition tests of the 1908 Binet Scale were applied to 784 pupils near the normal school. The definition tests formed so small a part of the complete scale that the published summary of the results did not reveal much. The data were sufficient, howgvegfgfihat the eighth-year definition tests were too easy and the thirteenth-year definition tests too hard. The tests were given to whole groups of children at a time and the answers secured in writing, but this is not thot to have influenced the final results very much.
Dr. J. E. Wallace Wallin, now of the University of Pittsburgh published a Guide for the Administration of the Binet Scale which contained nothing important other than what was previously given by Goddard. In fact,it was~almost identical with Goddard's article except for a more minute attention to the directions provided for those who might wish to use the tests.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a meticulous study of the renowned Binet Scale, a tool employed to assess a childās intelligence. In the early 1900s, the scale underwent revisions by multiple experts, including Goddard and Terman-Childs. The author delves into the evolution of these revisions, providing a comprehensive analysis of each test within the scale. The book explores the theoretical underpinnings of the Binet Scale, discussing the concept of general intelligence, the correlation between specific abilities and overall cognitive function, and the significance of environmental factors in shaping a child's mental development. Detailed descriptions of the scale's tests, their administration, and scoring criteria equip readers to gain a profound understanding of its application. Through meticulous data analysis, the author evaluates the scale's effectiveness in measuring the mental abilities of second and third graders. The book presents insights into the strengths and limitations of the scale, highlighting areas where further refinement may enhance its accuracy. The author concludes that the scale provides a valuable approximation of a child's cognitive abilities, but also emphasizes the influence of environmental and temperamental factors that cannot be fully captured by any standardized assessment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781528013901_0
