None of the above |
The correct answer is Option 4: None of the above NCERT: An intelligence test may be fully verbal, fully non-verbal or fully performance based, or it may consist of a mixture of items from each category. Verbal tests require subjects to give verbal responses either orally or in a written form. Therefore, verbal tests can be administered only to literate people. Why Option 3 is correct: While it is true that oral communication does not necessarily require literacy, the definition and classification of verbal intelligence tests in the context of NCERT are quite specific. According to the NCERT textbook, verbal tests require subjects to give verbal responses either orally or in written form. It further states that verbal tests can be administered only to literate people. Hence, the question has been framed from NCERT textbook and correspondingly, the answer is also given as per the NCERT. |
