Detailed explanation-1: -a sample used to establish reliable norms for the population that it represents. This is done by analyzing the results of the test administered to the sample and ascertaining the average performance level and the relative frequency of each deviation from the mean.
Detailed explanation-2: -Technically, ‘standardisation’ is the process used in psychometric test development to create norms so that the performance of students of different ages can be represented by means of scores that are independent of age.
Detailed explanation-3: -For example, a score from a standardized intelligence test from someone who took it in 1983 can be compared to a score from 2016. This is because any variables or aspects of the testing procedures or the test itself that would lead to differences in scores are minimized through the standardization process.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Stanford-Binet is the American adaptation of the original French Binet-Simon intelligence test; it was first introduced in 1916 by Lewis Terman, a psychologist at Stanford University.
