Abstract

Most doctors know little about clinical and educational

psychologists' areas of expertise; although

most do know that they carry out intelligence tests.

Now, just when doctors have accepted the intelligence

quotient (10) as a measure of intelligence,

psychologists seem reluctant to use the term. Why?

Is something wrong with the concept of IQ? Are IQ

tests outmoded?
