1. How is IQ tested?
There are several standardised tests to measure a person’s IQ or intelligence quotient. The IQ indicates a person’s reasoning and problem-solving abilities compared to people of his/her age. Traditionally, the IQ score is obtained by dividing a person’s mental age (measured on an intelligence test) by the person’s chronological age and multiplying the resulting value by 100.
2. Do IQ tests give accurate results?
The accuracy of IQ tests depends on the quality of data used and the accuracy of calculations. Researchers assure that standardised IQ tests that measure multiple facets of intelligence give accurate results when administered and interpreted correctly.
3. What is a good IQ score?
As per the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale Fifth Edition, an average IQ score lies between 90 and 109. Scores above 100 are generally regarded as a good IQ score.
4. Can IQ be improved?
Yes, many studies have shown that IQ can be improved over time. Regular brain exercises like playing brain games, learning to play an instrument or regularly working out might contribute to improving IQ.
5. Are online IQ tests accurate?
Although online tests are less rigorous, they are not administered by professional psychometricians. Therefore, the accuracy of online tests cannot be guaranteed. Also, if the test has a limited subject of questions, it is considered less accurate.
