Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a groundbreaking method for measuring mental ability. Developed by the author in the early 20th century, the Point Scale was intended to improve upon the Binet-Simon Scale, which the author argues has limitations and inconsistencies. A single series of wide-range questions are arranged approximately in order of their difficulty, and scoring by points allows for a more complete account of the individual's mental abilities. The scale is designed to be applicable to all ages and allows for the establishment of norms based on age, sex, race, and social and industrial groups, providing a more precise and reliable measure of mental ability. The author's insights on mental testing have significantly contributed to the field of psychology, providing a valuable tool for researchers, clinicians, and educators alike. 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.…
