Solution

The measurement of intelligence involves using standardized tests to assess a person’s mental abilities, such as reasoning, memory, problem-solving, and understanding.

These tests usually provide an IQ (Intelligence Quotient) score, which compares a person’s mental age to their actual age. Common intelligence tests include the Stanford-Binet and Wechsler scales.

The results help in educational placement, career guidance, and identifying special needs.
