Q 14. an explanation of methodology behind Binet’s tests Answer

Part of the passage [Par F]: 

How would we measure an abstract quality like strength and 

equate it to weight or height or age? The sensible advice we give anyone who suggested 

embarking on such a project would be ‘don’t: “strength” is an abstraction and, like ‘intelli-

gence’, results from a number of different elements’.

gence) in the same way as person’s height or weight.
