Abstract

The present study examined the association between static assessment, dynamic assessment and fluid intelligence. A pool of 109 students majoring in English Language Teaching and Translation Studies took part in the study. Two major instruments of the study included Computerized Dynamic Grammar Test and Raven's Advanced Progressive Matrices. The results of the study confirmed that the relation between static assessment of grammar and fluid intelligence as well as the relation between dynamic assessment of grammar and fluid intelligence were statistically significant. However, the relation between dynamic assessment of grammar and fluid intelligence was large. Finally, the results from the interviews revealed that ZPD and IQ are complementary and not contradictory. A practical implication for the students is that practicing fluid intelligence can improve their logical thinking by focusing on metacognitive strategies. Likewise, C-DA is a helpful source to develop effective learning strategies like directed attention, self-evaluation, and self-discovery strategies.

语法动态评价与流动智力的关系:以大学生为例

本研究考察了静态评估、动态评估与流体智力之间的关系。109名英语教学和翻译研究专业的学生参与了这项研究。研究的两个主要工具是计算机动态语法测试和瑞文高级递进矩阵。研究结果证实，静态语法评价与流体智力之间的关系以及动态语法评价与流体智力之间的关系具有统计学意义。然而，语法动态评价与流体智力之间的关系很大。最后，访谈结果显示，ZPD和IQ是互补的，并不矛盾。对学生的实际启示是，练习流体智力可以通过注重元认知策略来提高学生的逻辑思维能力。同样，C-DA是开发有效学习策略(如定向注意、自我评价和自我发现策略)的有用资源。
