best iq test books: IQ Intelligence Questions for Middle and High School Students Tayyip Oral, 2014-09-09 IQ—Intelligence Question This IQ book has been prepared for secondary school and high school students, with the aim of developing the problem solving skills of the mind. These tests result in the development of learning skills, making deductions from what they have learnt, applying these to new situations, analytical thinking and finding solutions. General ability tests provide information on the degree of benefit which can be derived by a person from education. These tests cause the potential of students with superior abilities to stand out and for them to recognize the contributions they can make to themselves and the community. Some parents and guardians are able to learn the IQ and intelligence capabilities of their children through these tests. The book generally consists of questions on numbers, processes, tables, platforms, and the relationships of these with each other. The aim here is to attempt to form a relationship between verbal questions and numbers, without frightening the students. The objective is to create a love of mathematics by setting off from verbal questions. The second part of the book contains more questions in particular on numbers, processes, and the relationships between numbers and shapes. The aim here is to use the basic mathematical processes to develop the capability of students to think quickly. IQ tests are tests of tendency and talent which measure the intellectual strength of individuals. They are comprised of different tests, including verbal, visual and numerical. These tests measure the abilities of students to retain information within their memory in the short term, and their problem solving skills. Due to these tests we are able to learn the capabilities of students in the areas of: —thinking quickly —problem solving —deductive reasoning —ability to carry out fast and faultless procedures with regard to numbers —ability to notice details within a short time —ability to detect inconsistencies —ability to carry out procedures using numbers —ability to compare shapes and find matching ones —ability to work with numeric concepts |

best iq test books: Hive Mind Garett Jones, 2015-11-11 Over the last few decades, economists and psychologists have quietly documented the many ways in which a person's IQ matters. But, research suggests that a nation's IQ matters so much more. As Garett Jones argues in Hive Mind, modest differences in national IQ can explain most cross-country inequalities. Whereas IQ scores do a moderately good job of predicting individual wages, information processing power, and brain size, a country's average score is a much stronger bellwether of its overall prosperity. Drawing on an expansive array of research from psychology, economics, management, and political science, Jones argues that intelligence and cognitive skill are significantly more important on a national level than on an individual one because they have positive spillovers. On average, people who do better on standardized tests are more patient, more cooperative, and have better memories. As a result, these qualities—and others necessary to take on the complexity of a modern economy—become more prevalent in a society as national test scores rise. What's more, when we are surrounded by slightly more patient, informed, and cooperative neighbors we take on these qualities a bit more ourselves. In other words, the worker bees in every nation create a hive mind with a power all its own. Once the hive is established, each individual has only a tiny impact on his or her own life. Jones makes the case that, through better nutrition and schooling, we can raise IQ, thereby fostering higher savings rates, more productive teams, and more effective bureaucracies. After demonstrating how test scores that matter little for individuals can mean a world of difference for nations, the book leaves readers with policy-oriented conclusions and hopeful speculation: Whether we lift up the bottom through changing the nature of work, institutional improvements, or freer immigration, it is possible that this period of massive global inequality will be a short season by the standards of human history if we raise our global IQ. |

best iq test books: Intelligence: All That Matters Stuart Ritchie, 2015-06-18 There is a strange disconnect between the scientific consensus and the public mind on intelligence testing. Just mention IQ testing in polite company, and you'll sternly be informed that IQ tests don't measure anything real, and only reflect how good you are at doing IQ tests; that they ignore important traits like emotional intelligence and multiple intelligences; and that those who are interested in IQ testing must be elitists, or maybe something more sinister. Yet the scientific evidence is clear: IQ tests are extraordinarily useful. IQ scores are related to a huge variety of important life outcomes like educational success, income, and even life expectancy, and biological studies have shown they are genetically influenced and linked to measures of the brain. Studies of intelligence and IQ are regularly published in the world's top scientific journals. This book will offer an entertaining introduction to the state of the art in intelligence and IQ, and will show how we have arrived at what we know from a century's research. It will engage head-on with many of the criticisms of IQ testing by describing the latest high-quality scientific research, but will not be a simple point-by-point rebuttal: it will make a positive case for IQ research, focusing on the potential benefits for society that a better understanding of intelligence can bring. |
best iq test books: The Curse of the High IQ Aaron Clarey, 2016-01-20 Society, by statistical necessity, needs to focus on the majority. It needs to be built and designed for the average. Society, by moral necessity, also needs to focus on the disadvantaged and disabled. Helping those who cannot help themselves. But while the majority of society's resources, attention, and infrastructure is dedicated to average or below-average intelligent people, little-to-none of it is paid to the abnormally intelligent. And while having a high IQ is an overall net benefit in life, being an statistical intellectual freak is not without its drawbacks. Welcome to the Curse of the High IQ. Whether you fall asleep during class, constantly ram heads with your boss, can't understand why people watch the Oscars, are an alcoholic, or are accused of having ADD, having a high IQ can be a maddening experience. What you see as the obvious solution is what the normies will fight against tooth and nail. Your D-'s you keep getting in English? Your superior mind being held hostage by the boring and inferior mind of your teacher. And you'd like to start a family? Good luck finding an intellectual-equal for a spouse. And so while the world obsesses with their own problems or (rightly so) the problems of the disadvantaged, no one is paying attention to the problems of the abnormally intelligent. However, that all changes now with Curse of the High IQ. Curse of the High IQ is the first book specifically written for abnormally intelligent people. It identifies and addresses a litany of problems intelligent people face, as well as analyzes them and provides solutions. But more importantly it aims to bring sanity to those who struggle with abnormally intelligence, especially those who are unaware they have it. So if you're constantly at odds with society, are suffering from depression or ennui, can't find any reason or agency in life, or just plain can't find any friends, consider purchasing Curse of the High IQ. It's guaranteed to make your life a little easier. |

best iq test books: At Our Wits' End Edward Dutton, Michael A. Woodley of Menie, 2018-12-20 We are becoming less intelligent. This is the shocking yet fascinating message of At Our Wits' End. The authors take us on a journey through the growing body of evidence that we are significantly less intelligent now than we were a hundred years ago. The research proving this is, at once, profoundly thought-provoking, highly controversial, and it's currently only read by academics. But the authors are passionate that it cannot remain ensconced in the ivory tower any longer. With At Our Wits' End, they present the first ever popular scientific book on this crucially important issue. They prove that intelligence — which is strongly genetic — was increasing up until the breakthrough of the Industrial Revolution, because we were subject to the rigors of Darwinian Selection, meaning that lots of surviving children was the preserve of the cleverest. But since then, they show, intelligence has gone into rapid decline, because large families are increasingly the preserve of the least intelligent. The book explores how this change has occurred and, crucially, what its consequences will be for the future. Can we find a way of reversing the decline of our IQ? Or will we witness the collapse of civilization and the rise of a new Dark Age? |

best iq test books: IQ Stephen Murdoch, 2007-06-15 Advance praise for IQ A Smart History of a Failed Idea An up-to-date, reader-friendly account of the continuing saga of the mismeasure of women and men. —Howard Gardner, author of Frames of Mind and Multiple Intelligences: New Horizons The good news is that you won't be tested after you've read Stephen Murdoch's important new book. The better news is that IQ: A Smart History of a Failed Idea is compelling from its first pages, and by its conclusion, Murdoch has deftly demonstrated that in our zeal to quantify intelligence, we have needlessly scarred—if not destroyed—the lives of millions of people who did not need an IQ score to prove their worth in the world. IQ is first-rate narrative journalism, a book that I hope leads to necessary change. —Russell Martin, author of Beethoven's Hair, Picasso's War, and Out of Silence With fast-paced storytelling, freelance journalist Murdoch traces now ubiquitous but still controversial attempts to measure intelligence to its origins in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. . . . Murdoch concludes that IQ testing provides neither a reliable nor a helpful tool in understanding people's behavior, nor can it predict their future success or failure. . . . A thoughtful overview and a welcome reminder of the dangers of relying on such standardized tests. —Publishers Weekly Stephen Murdoch delivers a lucid and engaging chronicle of the ubiquitous and sometimes insidious use of IQ tests. This is a fresh look at a century-old and still controversial idea—that our human potential can be distilled down to a single test score. Murdoch's compelling account demands a reexamination of our mania for mental measurement. —Paul A. Lombardo, author of Three Generations, No Imbeciles: Eugenics, the Supreme Court & Buck v. Bell |
