CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The Stanford-Binet intelligence scale, commonly referred to as the Stanford-Binet test, was developed in the first half of the 20th century by Lewis Terman by revising the Binet-Simon scale. It is still widely used today as both an assessment tool and as the foundation for various IQ tests and intelligence scales .

Detailed explanation-2: -Terman and his Stanford colleagues translated Binet’s test, adapted the content for U.S. schools, set new age norms and standardized the distribution of scores so that the mean score would always be 100. Terman called the new version the Stanford-Binet test.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lewis Terman was an educational psychologist at Stanford university who developed an intelligence test (later known as the Stanford-Binet IQ test), which he described in his 1916 book.

Detailed explanation-4: -Terman found that while many of his high IQ subjects were very successful, not all fared as well and most actually turned out no better than the average. He did find that those who ended up being the most successful tended to rate higher on self-confidence, perseverance, and goal-orientation as children.
