Whois & Analysis for legitimateiqtest.com

An intelligence quotient (IQ) is a total score derived from a set of standardised tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence.

The abbreviation "IQ" was coined by the psychologist William Stern for the German term, his term for a scoring method for intelligence tests at University of Breslau he advocated in a 1912 book.

Intelligence is the capacity or ability to acquire, apprehend and apply knowledge in a behavioral context.

The term rose to prominence during the early 1900's, coinciding the emergence of behaviorism.

Intelligence differs from intellect, with the latter being measured in cognitive performance rather than behavior as a whole.

In the case of human intelligence, one can be intelligent in more than a single domain, take for example abstraction, logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving.

According to American psychologist Howard Gardner, intelligence can be divided into multiple intelligences or intelligent performances.

Similarly, intellect can be interpreted as an aggregate of intellects or intellectual performances.

In statistics and psychometrics, reliability is the overall consistency of a measure.

A measure is said to have a high reliability if it produces similar results under consistent conditions:"It is the characteristic of a set of test scores that relates to the amount of random error from the measurement process that might be embedded in the scores.

Scores that are highly reliable are precise, reproducible, and consistent from one testing occasion to another.

That is, if the testing process were repeated with a group of test takers, essentially the same results would be obtained.

Various kinds of reliability coefficients, with values ranging between 0.00 (much error) and 1.00 (no error), are usually used to indicate the amount of error in the scores." For example, measurements of people's height and weight are often extremely reliable.

Accuracy and precision are two measures of observational error.

Accuracy is how close a given set of measurements (observations or readings) are to their true value, while precision is how close the measurements are to each other.

Science is a rigorous, systematic endeavor that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe.

Modern science is typically divided into three major branches: natural sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, and physics), which study the physical world; the social sciences (e.g., economics, psychology, and sociology), which study individuals and societies; and the formal sciences (e.g., logic, mathematics, and theoretical computer science), which study formal systems, governed by axioms and rules.

There is disagreement whether the formal sciences are science disciplines, because they do not rely on empirical evidence.

Applied sciences are disciplines that use scientific knowledge for practical purposes, such as in engineering and medicine.
