Abstract
We report the results of a new study of intelligence in Jordan for 5- to 11-year-olds assessed by the Coloured Progressive Matrices, a test of non-verbal reasoning. It gives a British-scaled IQ of 84.5. The result is in line with those of earlier studies using Raven’s Progressive Matrices in Jordan.
期刊介绍:
The Mankind Quarterly was founded as a quarterly journal of anthropology, in the broadest sense of "the science of man," in 1961. This was a time when the "study of man" had already diversified into physical anthropology, ethnography, quantitative cross-cultural research, archaeology and other subspecialties. Psychological and linguistic approaches were explored but the genetic study of population structure and population history was still in its infancy.
