Document Summary

Practice exam (march midterm: another form of intelligence that has attracted a lot of attention is emotional intelligence. Both of these groups: often need special educational opportunities, tend to walk earlier, need large amounts of support, are often victims of stereotypes, both a & d. Suppose a researcher gave people the following problem: in a group of 100 people, 70 are pilots and 30 are bookkeepers. Of that group, one man is meek, timid, and enjoys helping people. Most subjects would answer: bookkeeper, demonstrating a bias toward representativeness, bookkeeper, demonstrating a prior probability bias, pilot, demonstrating use of the base-rate information given, pilot, demonstrating the availability bias, bookkeeper, demonstrating functional fixedness. Binet made two assumptions when developing his intelligence tests. His assumptions, if true, meant that: a child who is less than competent than expected at age 5 should also be lagging at age.
