similar capabilities. In school settings‚ psychologists often joke that IQ is what IQ tests measure. There is a lot of truth to this adage. Ideally‚ IQ tests sample a wide range of experiences and they measure a person’s ability to apply learned information in new and different ways. They do not measure capacity or potential. They do provide information about cognitive skills at a given point in time. Because IQ tests chiefly measure success in school‚ they are value-laden. Scores provide a statistical
