intelligence scale

An intelligence scale is a standardized measurement used to assess a person’s cognitive abilities, such as reasoning, problem-solving, memory, and understanding. It typically involves a series of tests that evaluate different mental skills. The results are expressed as an intelligence quotient (IQ) score, which helps compare individuals’ abilities relative to the average for their age group. These scales are useful for identifying strengths and weaknesses, diagnosing learning disabilities, or guiding educational and psychological support. However, they don’t capture all aspects of intelligence, like creativity or emotional understanding.
