New Views on IQ's: A Silent Revolution of the 70's.

Abstract

This article describes, in nontechnical terms, a radical shift in perspective on intelligence and intelligence testing that has emerged during the 1970's. The article presents and elaborates upon three main goals of the 'revolution' among contemporary psychologists studying intelligence: to discover just what intelligence is, to extract from intelligence tests information that is much more diagnostic, predictive, and theoretically based than information that is presently available from IQ tests, and to modify what the tests measure to bring them into line with our theorizing about the nature of intelligence.
