Armour-Thomas, Eleanor, Sharon-ann Gopaul-McNicol
Assessing Intelligence : Applying a Bio-Cultural Model
Publisher: Sage Publications, Inc Thousand Oaks CA 1998
Very Good with no dust jacket First Edition; First Printing Hardcover Library stamps/marks/labels/slip, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; Offering an alternative approach to the current models of assessing intelligence, this volume presents a comprehensive and informed understanding of the biological and cultural influences on intellectual behavior. In Assessing Intelligence, authors Eleanor Armour-Thomas and Sharon-Ann Gopaul-McNicol propose a "bio-cultural" model for intelligence assessment. This volume begins by examining the issues pertaining to intellectual assessment, the nature of intelligence, and the biological influences on cognition. It then explores a new model for assessing all childrenùThe Four-Tier Bio-Cultural Assessment System--and it presents an evaluation of that system. Finally, it offers training suggestions for teachers, parents, counselors, and psychologists for enhancing the intellectual potential of all children, and it presents implications for future research and clinical work as well as a vision for policymakers to ensure culturally sensitive assessment. Assessing Intelligence offers a diverse perspective from the fields of clinical psychology, school psychology, education, and education psychology. It will be a valuable resource for practitioners, researchers, and policymakers in the fields of general psychology, clinical psychology, education, social psychology, cross-cultural psychology, multicultural psychology, political science, and cultural studies. Contents: PART ONE: INTELLIGENCE: MAJOR ISSUES AND CHALLENGES: Intellectual Assessment in a Multicultural Society; Conceptions of Human Intelligence and Implications for Its Assessment; Culture and Cognition Toward a Biocultural Perspective of Intellectual Development; PART TWO: INTELLECTUAL ASSESSMENT AND CULTURE: A NEW PARADIGM: The Evolution of the Biocultural Assessment System; The Biocultural Assessment System; A Critical Review of Standardized Tests and Approaches of Intelligence Using the Biocultural Assessment Model; Report Writing Utilizing the Four-Tier Biocultural Assessment System; Evaluation of the Biocultural Assessment System; PART THREE: TRAINING AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS OF THE BIOCULTURAL ASSESSMENT SYSTEM: Training of Mental Health Workers, Educators and Parents To Enhance the Intellectual Functioning of Children; Implications for Future Research and Policy. ; Racial and Ethnic Minority Psychology Series; Ex-Library; Vol. 1; 263 pages
