Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Good intelligence tests are reliable, meaning that they are consistent over time, and also demonstrate validity, meaning that they actually measure intelligence rather than something else.

Detailed explanation-2: -A person’s IQ (intelligence quotient) is a score derived from standardized tests designed to measure human intelligence and intellectual potential.

Detailed explanation-3: -A valid intelligence test should be able to accurately measure the construct of intelligence rather than other characteristics, such as memory or education level. Essentially, construct validity looks at whether a test covers the full range of behaviors that make up the construct being measured.

Detailed explanation-4: -Modern intelligence tests often focus on abilities such as mathematical skills, memory, spatial perception, and language abilities. The capacity to see relationships, solve problems, and remember information are important components of intelligence, so these are often the skills on which IQ tests focus.
