Intelligence theory and testing posts in the "pipeline"

Future posts at either ICDP or IQs Corner blogs.

• What does the WAIS-IV measure per CHC theory?
• School psychologist potential role in Atkins MR proceedings (with actual case example from court records)
• Can a person with mild MR achieve above their IQ? (remember Forrest Gump)
• Courts struggle with establishing adaptive behavior functioning during childhood
• Why IQ scores may differ - scoring errors are potentially more of a problem than we acknowledge
• Description/overview of major IQ tests
• CHC analysis of major IQ tests, with emphasis on composite scores (since these are what are paid attention to in court proceedings)
• Hopefully clear definitions of "standard error of measurement" and "standardized tests" some misunderstandings need clarification
• Why you can't average standard scores...a psychometric "no no"
• plus other stuff
