INTRODUCTION
 Intelligence is “the capacity to acquire and apply knowledge.” Intelligence includes
the ability to benefit from past experience, act purposefully, solve problems, and
adapt to new situations. Intelligence can also be defined as “the ability that
intelligence tests measure.” There is a long history of disagreement about what
actually constitutes intelligence.
 In simple words, intelligence is nothing but thinking skills and the ability to adapt to
and to learn from life’s everyday experiences or Intelligence is defined as mental
capability that involves the ability to reason, to plan, to solve problems, to think
abstractly, to comprehend complex ideas, to learn quickly and to learn from
experience. It is not merely book learning, a narrow academic skill, or test-taking
smartness.
 Thorndike defines intelligence as “one’s capacity to deal effectively with situations”.
 For Jean Piaget, ‘intelligence is the ability to adapt to one’s surroundings’.
The main features of Intelligence are the following:
 Intelligence is an innate natural endowment of the child.
 It helps the child in maximum learning in minimum period of time.
 The child is able to foresee the future and plan accordingly.
 The child is able to take advantage of his previous experiences.
 The child faces the future with compliance.
 He develops a sense of discrimination between right or wrong.
 The developmental period of intelligence is from birth to adolescence.
 There is a minor difference in the development of intelligence between boys and girls.
 There are individual differences with regard to the intelligence between boys and
girls.
 Intelligence is mostly determined by heredity but a suitable environment necessary to
improve it.
CULTURE FAIR INTELLIGENCE TEST
 The culture fair test was constructed by Raymond B.Cattell

 Raymond B. Cattell was a scientist who wanted to create an intelligence test that measured an
IQ in a manner that was devoid of all sociocultural and environmental influences.
 He believed that someone’s IQ was a cumulative measure of their fluid intelligence and
crystallized intelligence. When measuring these two factors, it is possible to retest someone and
measure how much of their fluid intelligence was lost over a certain number of years, or how
well set their crystallized intelligence is after years of experience and study.
 To Cattell, intelligence is founded partially on biological and partially on environmental factors,
and he also believed that nonverbal assessment was the best way of discerning someone’s true
IQ. With that, since the test was designed to be as free of sociocultural and environmental
influences, it serves as a great utility of analysis for most age ranges
The Culture-Fair test is comprised of three stages of questions; their breakdown is as follows:
 Stage I
 Stage II & III

• Sequence of Drawings
• Mazes • Classification Subtest
• Copying Symbols • Matrix Subtest
• Identifying • Conditional Subtest
Symbols
• Nonverbal Tasks
 Of the three stages listed, the first is the easiest and most applicable to individuals of all
ages, whereas stages two and three are best suited to adolescents and adults. Since the
Culture-Fair test was designed to work without verbal input, it measures intelligence as
someone’s ability to use their understandings to navigate increasingly complex scenarios. That
said, since it does possess great accuracy in predicting an individual’s intelligence, even
without verbal input, it is still accepted by most high-IQ societies for accepting members.
HOW THE ACTIVITY CONDUCTED
 As part of our B.Ed curriculum, this intelligence test was conducted by our faculty Ms. Vimmi
Kumari on 2nd march. This test was conducted on a population of 94 pupils teachers as a group
test.
 All the students were divided into into groups of 10 according to their roll no. hence there were
a total 9 groups consisting of 10 or 11 pupils in each set.
 Then Each group was handed over with a test paper.
 the test consisted of 50 questions of 1 mark each and each group has given 45 minutes to solve
the paper
 After that evaluation was done and rankings were given to the groups according to the marks
obtained in the test.
RESULT
GROUP MARKS RANK PERCENTILE PERCENTAGE RESULT
1 28 2 56 ABOVE AVERAGE
3 25 7 50 BELOW AVERAGE
INTERPRETATION
On the basis of the test conducted it can be interpreted that;
 The mean score of the test is 26.6. therefore out of 9 groups ; 5 groups fall in the
category of above average and 4 groups fall in the category of below average.
 Group 5 scored highest on the test among the 9 groups with the percentage of 60%
hence this group falls in the strata of higher cognitive abilities.
 On the other hand Group 7 scored the lowest with 44 percentage they fall under
the category of below average and indicating the slight ineptness in perceiving
relationship in shapes and figures.
 I was in the group 9 and my group secured 25 marks in the test among the 9
groups with 50 percentage (i.e. below average).
CONCLUSION
 Culture fair intelligence test is a non verbal instrument to measure your
analytical and reasoning ability. The test included series, classification, mages,
etc. such problems are believed to be familiar with all cultures.
 The culture fair is a rapid IQ test. When ignored the speed factor, results can
be misleading.
 The test comprised of 4 stages of questions. It measures intelligence as
someone’s ability to use their understanding to navigate increasingly complex
scenarios.
