Hank, The "which is the oddone out" question is wrong because bananas are berries and so are apples blueberries and oranges. Strawberries aren't berries (weird right?). So the strawberries are the odd one out. just to say: tomatoes and watermelons are berries too.

I think that the biggest thing holding people back is motivation, not intelligence, and motivation most certainly is nurture based. Schools don't have enough really challenging material in the basic curriculum these days. The top grades are too close to the mediocre ones and when a somewhat intelligent person keeps getting between Bs & A*s without effort they're not going to develop much of a work ethic.

I agree with the message, but pretty much everything in psychology is, in fact, influenced by both nurture and nature. What you call motivation is liked to conscientiousness, a personality trait which is part of the "Big Five", or five factor model. Genetic influence has been shown to account for 40-60% of the variance in these traits. Of course, we can still foster it, just like intelligence.

In regards to the fruit question I am wondering how nebulous it actually is. All of the fruits except for the strawberry grow up off the ground on a firm stem. All of the fruits are picked in the warmer months except for the apple. All of the fruit fall on the short wavelength colour spectrum except for the blueberry. All of the fruits contain seeds except for the banana. Things would get even more complicated if I could recall the exact nutritional value, chemical composition, harvest yield, origin of the species and their current value on todays markets. So I ask you, which one of these things is least like the other?

Blueberry is also a lot more expensive per unit of weight than the others where I live. I can't imagine that most people won't be able to justify their decision no matter what fruit they pick.

in the world where such system of measuring students with standardized tests is deeply embedded into the society, sadly, the test scores represent the students' abilities starting as early as elementary school, causing students getting different opportunities and education depending on who knows the test more, not really their ability to learn.
@kayas16086 жыл бұрын
Exactly, especially considering funding in America. Schools that have low test scores get less funding from the state and schools that have higher get more, which is extremely counterintuitive. A school will have lower than average test scores, so their budget gets slashed, which means they have less money for resources such as text books, tutoring, quality teachers, etc. That means students perform even lower, so their funding is cut again, and it’s a never ending cycle. It’s completely unfair to students, who are primarily from lower class families. The standardized tests do not grade learning ability, intelligence, or work ethic. They grade on what you were taught, then punish kids that did not receive a quality education with a worse one the following year

Any test will by design also test your ability in taking tests. Which is a good ability to have in school, but not very important at a workplace. I remember when I was in high school one of my teacher noticed that a few of the students were doing well in class but scored low on the tests. He started giving tests to those students in smaller, less stressful groups and they all raised their scores. Which also shows how important good teachers are.

Taking a cognitive test just for fun, I actually felt my brain strain (and I kept pushing it, just like working out a muscle, meaning (applying inductive reasoning) that you CAN 'exercise' your brain)... One question was deftly tricky - you had to make a shift in your thinking mode from pattern-based recognition to system based - it was a number pattern question of the type "What would the next number be?", where they had previous questions which were based on the spatial relationships of the numbers (such as a series that skipped every three numbers), then they threw a version that added a system relationship (where the next number was the next prime number, though it was skipping by two's, which served to defeat the spatial mode of thinking). The only way that question could have been answered in the short time allowed was to have encountered it before - i.e. prior experience at such tests (i.e. 'practicing' at the tests - which defeats the validity of the tests). 10:09 is a good example of a culturally biased question (because any of the potential answers apply - what the question is looking for is a culturally colloquial saying), though I see that they may have screwed-up the question - which should have been "Which item does not fit the group" (and the answer would have been the lemon - which does not directly correlate to a hand), indicating an ADHD moment in the question creators.

Another important thing to note is that the WISC is used to help diagnose learning disabilities. If a child is doing poorly when they first enter school but they score well on the WISC it's a strong sign that they have a learning disability. The child can then get the help they need to both retain the information they learn in class, and express that information; be it more time on tests or access to computers.

What is a piano? A piano is a musical instrument (an object capable of producing many different audio tones in response to being interacted with in similar but still different ways). It has several rectangular buttons, called "keys", which each produce a distinct tone. While there are various ways of linking these keys to their tones, the first method involved a complex series of levers triggered by each key which vibrated strings of varying dimensions; this method is typically the one associated with the word "piano". The electronic method is typically called a "keyboard". Which one of these things is least like the others? I would argue the grape. The wavelengths of red, orange, and yellow are all on the high end of the visible spectrum, while purple is on the low end. Juice is to glass as hand is to what? Glove. Juice is normally put inside a glass. Hands are put inside gloves. Which one of these numbers does not belong in the series? 2. The series follows a pattern of x, n-3, n+1, n-3, n+1..., where n is the previous value and x is an arbitrary starting position (9 in this case). Bernice, jellybeans, etc.... x=23. EDIT: These answers were written before realizing they were answered at the end of the video.

This video was fairly comprehensive. The only problem I'm having is that IQ tests do in fact show differences between the genders. They also show differences between ethnic groups. I get the idea that the IQ test wasn't designed to tell whether women are smarter than men. But, the most current findings shows that there are quantifiable differences between the sexes as measured on the IQ test. I also understand the concept of "stereotype threat", that this can effect IQ results. But, that's why any good statistician would apply an adjusted means to account for these variables. In other words, whether the person administering the test is a woman/man, black/white would and should have negligible effects on the results of the test.

The strawberry is the only nut in the mix, so I would argue that the least similar is strawberry - especially since both banana and plums are berries. It is also the only one which does not grow on a tree and the only one whose plant spreads in two ways rather than just seeds (strawberry plants also spread via long tendrils reaching out, burrowing and forming a new independant plant with its own roots).

Strawberries have nuts on the outside and they are technically an aggregate fruit (as opposed to a simple fruit), meaning that they are a made from a number of different "parts" rather than just one part. One of those parts that you put in the mouth is a collection of "thick, woody pericarp surrounding a single seed" which constitutes a nut. Bananas are technically berries, along with oranges and plumbs. Apples are not berries but still grow on trees, meaning they are more in common with the rest, rather than the banana. Anyway, this is a fruitless (ba dum tiss!) discussion, because it depends on the kind of knowledge you are trying to measure - still, I thought that strawberries "being nuts" and bananas being berries was pretty common knowledge, but it depends on local culture I guess. Also, this quite clearly shows a problem with intelligence tests, because we are quite clearly of a different perception and point of view here, but that doesnt mean that any of us is in the wrong. It just proves that there may be more answers to the question, than the question maker thought, making the test itself useless for showing intelligence in the form of a number on a scale

Not all adoptive parents want both twins, so they get separated. Unfortunately :(
@bingbong21794 жыл бұрын
Is there any reason that it's particularly cruel? Do twins gain anything by being raised together,that's specific to them and not siblings in general? If two twins are separately adopted they would thene be in the same situation as a single child adopted without a twin. You might believe there 's some spiritual connection or something but there's no way to argue with that, unless you were to compare e.g. happiness of twins raised in separate adoptive families vs the same

With the question at the beginning of the video about the fruit, I think a person would also be right if they chose the strawberry because it's the only fruit there with seeds on the outside.

I've gotta say, there have been times when I've heard a completely rational, logical statement made that has completely changed my opinion on certain matters. Some situations definitely give intelligence the advantage over bias.

The fruit question could be answered differently, such as saying the strawberry is least like the others, as its seeds are on the outside. As for the number pattern, it could be said that the second 6 doesn't belong if you're following the rule that the difference between one number and the next follows 3, 2, 3, 2. 9 to 6 is 3, 6 to 8 is 2, as is 4 to 2. 2 to 6 would be breaking this rule.

I was placed into the gifted services at my elementary school because I was able to score in the top 5% on the WISK test. Although I had a couple average scores they considered my background as a factor since I lived on an Indian reservation for most of my life at that time. So I assume they could not measure me as accurately on a Bell Curve or any other comparable average.

I have had to write professional certification tests for adults, thankfully, not for school students. It is mind-grindingly difficult. All the choices must be fair, consistent, unambiguous and plausible. The questions have to change from test round to test round and there must be different versions in each round so that test takers can't copy off of each-others papers. After the first few rounds went well, they wanted me to write other tests on other subjects. All my good ideas were used up in the first few rounds. Maintaining those tests was one of the hardest tasks of my professional life.

Strawberry because the seeds are on the outside. The ring because you only put part of your hand into it, while you only ever fill a glass from a larger container. 6 because it is the only one repeated. And 23 jellybeans, cause well... Math. And I didn't do the math cause that's why I'm a biologist. I trust you. But I don't like tests.

It is a reference to the scottish film "Trainspotting" starring Ewan McGregor. In the film, Sick Boy(johnny lee miller) neglects his son who consequently starves to death. McGregor's character later on is haunted by the child's ghost who appears deformed and frankly terrifying.

The strawberry is the one that is the most different because the other things are fruits (swollen, ripened flower ovaries), while the strawberry is a swollen flower base and the "seeds" on the outside are the real fruits.

Reading (ability to comprehend), Math (logic puzzles), & the new testing for the SAT's Writing (English Writing is rule/law/exception based). Difficult to compare these two tests on your three based system with the added element of legal propaganda. As I say grammar/spelling is a living form differing from subsets of the same speaking culture so having a standardization to test the awareness of one set of rules/exceptions we establish a flawed/biased system. Even in the two based Reading/Math this ability of knowledge hierarchy tests memory more than anything else. So while one might test well in a subject we have a shift between K-12(learning a broad range) and college+(specific chosen subject). Meaning while it seems like a good idea to have no child left behind in either reading/math/writing we seem to change our conditioning for the professional arena.

Hi. You described that our mental ability gets similar to our parents and doesn't depend on whether we are raised by biological parent or adopted one. But here my question is what is the relation of our mental ability to our mother and father?? I mean it is also a possibility that one parent might be smarter than other. Thanks :)

I've always been of the opinion that determination and interest are more important to learning and succeeding than intelligence. Mkst geniuses just spend a lot of time on something that they want to be good at, they're not born knowing it. I'd rather be a hard worker than be intelligent, although hopefully I have both characteristics.
