Group Administered Tests

- Group intelligence tests can be administered to small groups of children and consist of a series of multiple-choice questions. They measure general mental ability and are composed of separately timed subtests. - Examples of group intelligence tests include the Otis-Lennon Mental Ability Tests, Cognitive Abilities Test, and Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence Tests. They provide a way to compare the intellectual growth of children over several years. - Nonverbal and culture-fair tests exist for measuring intelligence in those with language or cultural handicaps, such as the Progressive Matrices and Culture Fair Intelligence Tests.

 Lewis Terman taught a course at Stanford


University.
 His student Arthur Otis reportedly conceived
the idea of Stanford-Binet tasks to paper and
pencil format.
 Many of Otis`s adapted tasks and others were
combined as the first group intelligence tests,
the Army Alpha and the Army Beta.
 A typical group intelligence test consists
of a series of multiple-choice questions
arranged in a spiral-omnibous format.

-Otis-lennon Mental Ability Tests and the


Henmon-Nelson Tests of MentalAbility.

 Test composed of a series of separately


timed subtests:
-The Test of Cognitive Skills
-The Cognitive Abilities Test
? 

  
The rationale underlying the
construction of a multilevel
intelligence test is to provide a
series of tasks for comparing the
intellectual growth of children over
several years.

-revisions of the earlier tests in the Otis
series.
-composed of a variety of items to
measure general mental ability from the
last half of kindergarten through grades 10-
12.
-testing time varies from 30 to 45 minutes.
-the most recent entry in the Otis series is
the  
     
  
-successor to the California Short Form Test
of Mental Maturity And the Short Form
Test of Academic Aptitude.
-composed of four subtests (Sequences,
Analogies, Memory and Verbal Reasoning).
-combined scores on all four subtests may
be converted to a Cognitive Skills Index
(CSI).
  
-successor to the Lorge-Thorndike Intelligence
Tests.
-there are two levels of the Primary Battery:
Primary 1 (K to 2) and Primary II (grades 2 to 3).
-the Primary Battery and the Multilevel Edition
are composed of three parts (Verbal,
Quantitative and Nonverbal).
-working time for each subtest is 12-18 minutes.
-Raw scores on the Verbal, Quantitative and
Nonverbal parts may be converted to various
types of norms.
     

  

-Group Intelligence tests can be administered to
small groups of children .
-in scoring group intelligence tests, raw scores,
whether part or global, can be converted to
percentile ranks, standard scores, or other
numerical units.
-scores on group tests, should be interpreted
cautiously and against a background of other
information about the examinee.
  

-A number of different tests have been used
over the years for college admissions purposes.
-The most popular test for admission to
graduate school is the Graduate Record
Examinations.
-The Quantitative tests consist of quantitative
and data interpretation problems.
-Several other standardized tests are used in
selecting students for admission to professional
schools.
m    

  
-Performance tests designed as individually
administered measures of the intellectual
abilities of persons with language or cultural
handicaps.
-The grandfather of these nonverbal tests was
the Army Beta of World War 1.
-Another example of a nonverbal test suitable
for group administration is the Goodenough-
Harris Drawing Test.
  !"# 
-This test is a revision of the
Goodenough Draw-a-Man Test.
-The man and the woman figure that
the examinee is instructed to draw are
scored for body and clothing details.
-This test is untimed.
-This test is culturally fair.
 $ ?
-This test may be administered on either
an individual or a group basis.
-Developed in Great Britain as a measure
of Spearman͛s general intelligence factor.
-Raven is available in two forms the 1938
and 1947 form.
-The percentile norms on both forms of the
test were obtained on samples of English
schoolchildren and adults.
  %   
-This series of test is composed of three
scales: Scale 1, Scale 2 and Scale 3.
-Each scale is composed of four subtests
for measuring the ability to perceive
relationships among other things.
-Testing time is 40-60 minutes for Scale 1
and 25-30 minutes for each of the forms of
Scales 2 and 3.
