Title

“The Standardization of Intelligence Tests on Southern Negro School Children”

Description

The article “The Standardization of Intelligence Tests on Southern Negro School Children” was featured in the Training School Bulletin volume 60 Number 2 in August of 1962. The article addresses the limitations of tests like the Stanford-Binet test when determining a child’s intelligence. The authors discuss how these assessments don’t consider the cultural intricacies of sub-groups and therefore, standardized tests cannot be the only measure used to dictate success in schools and intellectual ability.
