Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale Fifth edition Jordanian-Revised (SB5JR)

Introduction:

We adopted the Stanford-Paint IQ as a tool for assessing mental abilities in our comprehensive assessment process for a long time due to our belief in individual differences and the difference of people in their characteristics and intellectual and physical ability.

The Stanford scale is one of the most important international standards in the IQ field that is why we decided to activate the fifth amended version on the Jordanian environment from it through our evaluation process to have more credible results.

This scale is also applied individually, and the average application time for the entire test is 45 to 75 minutes. As for the short battery, its application time is 15 to 20 minutes.

The scale contains

The scale as a whole contains ten sub-tests, which combine to be another scale as follows:

1- Brief Battery Percentage Scale: It consists of two tests of determining the path of non-verbal fluid reasoning and verbal knowledge. Abbreviated IQ scale with some batteries or other scales in a procedure.

2- Non-verbal IQ scale:

It consists of non-verbal subtests after categorizing the five identifying factors measured by the fifth edition.

3- Verbal IQ scale: which complements the nonverbal IQ. It consists of the five verbal subtests.

4- Total IQ of the scale: It is the product of the summation of the two verbal domains.

Expected benefit and target group:

The Stanford- Binet Scale, the fifth version, is used to measure intelligence and cognitive abilities and is suitable for ages from two years to 70 years and over. The test can be applied to all individuals without exception, for people with or without disabilities. The results obtained from the application of the scale contribute to:

· Assessment of early childhood capabilities and psychological and educational evaluation related to joining special education programs.

· Providing information for therapeutic interventions such as individual plans for family, individual educational plans for children in school

· Vocational assessment (planning and transition from school to work) for adolescents, career change for adults, and employee selection classification.

· Neuropsychological treatment and rehabilitation for adults

· Useful for clinical and neuropsychological assessment and capacity research

· Diagnosis of mental disability (at all ages) learning difficulties and progressive cognitive delay in young children, in addition to enrolling students in programs for the mentally gifted in schools. In many of these cases, it may be important to conduct additional assessments applied next to the fifth picture of the Stanford-Binet scale, for example, The diagnosis of mental disability requires the presence of an adaptive behavior scale, in addition to a mental ability scale.

The team responsible for evaluation by the Stanford-Binet IQ Scale, the fifth edition:

The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, the fifth version, is applied at AHS society by certified psychologists in the application of the scale with experience between three and four years in applying the test in general to all people and different ages, especially to children with disabilities, in addition to their ability to interpret the results of the assessment accurately issuing reports to all examinees and directing them to the appropriate services.
