Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Development of Intelligence in Children: The Binet-Simon Scale The first contribution of Drs. Binet and Simon to the problem of measuring intelligence appeared in L´Année Psychologique for 1905. This volume reached America early in 1906. The Vineland Research Laboratory for the psychological study of feeble-mindedness was opened in September of the same year. My first work as director of this Laboratory was to search the literature for anything that bore upon the problem. The above article had attracted so little attention from the American psychologists that in spite of dilligent search in bibliographies, reviews, original sources and by appeals to personal friends, Binet´s work in this line was never brought to my attention. It was not until the Spring of 1908 when I made a visit to Europe in the interests of the work that I learned of the tests. On that trip a visit was made to Dr. Decroly in Brussels. Dr. Decroly and Mlle. Degand had just completed a try-out of tests by Drs. Binet and Simon of Paris. Upon my return home I began at once to use the tests on the children of the Training School, employing Decroly´s article as the source of information. Later I obtained Binet´s article. These were the "1905" tests, not the scale. In December 1908 I published a six-page account of these tests. In 1909 appeared L´Année Psychologique giving the Scale, with the grading by years. Probably no critic of the scale during the past six years has reacted against it more positively than did I at that first reading. It seemed impossible to grade intelligence in that way. It was too easy, too simple. The article was laid aside for some weeks. One day while using the old tests, whose inadequacy was great, the new Scale came to mind and I decided to give it a fair trial. In January 1910 we published the first abstract of the scale being a brief summary of the 1908 Binet-Simon article. Our use of the scale was a surprise and a gratification. It met our needs. A classification of our children based on the Scale agreed with the Institution experience. Soon others began to use the scale. Then came the critics.
