The Thorndike Scale

The Thorndike Scale is a method used to measure a person's level of general knowledge. Developed by psychologist Edward Thorndike, it assesses how well an individual can answer questions on various topics. The scale typically ranges from low to high, indicating a person's understanding and intelligence across general subjects. This tool helps educators and researchers evaluate a person's knowledge base and identify areas for improvement, contributing to better educational strategies and insights into cognitive abilities.
