Detailed explanation-2: -The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale was first developed in 1905 by French psychologist Alfred Binet and his collaborator Theodore Simon to test the attention, memory, and verbal skill of schoolchildren and thereby measure their intelligence. It was revised in 1908 and 1911.

Detailed explanation-3: -Introduced by Albert Binet and published as the Simon–Binet test in 1905 (Binet and Simon, 1905), the first tool for the assessment of intelligence was aimed to detect and support children with special needs. The items included in this test battery reflected age-appropriate intellectual ability.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Stanford-Binet test is a examination meant to gauge intelligence through five factors of cognitive ability. These five factors include fluid reasoning, knowledge, quantitative reasoning, visual-spatial processing and working memory. Both verbal and nonverbal responses are measured.

Detailed explanation-5: -Binet and Simon largely created their intelligence test (IQ test) to determine which children required more individualized attention.
