Intelligence Testing or Testing Inteligently

Abstract

Standardized tests of intelligence have long been the stock and trade of the school psychologist. Recent court decisions and professional debates have questioned the utility of such a practice. The arguments continue, and school psychologists find themselves caught in the tempest of a violent storm. The time has come to reconsider the issue and propose alternative uses for traditionally standardized evaluation procedures. Such an approach is limited only by the bounds of our imagination.
