IQ test may restrict people to one group, and they may be classified as having low intelligence and given less opportinities due to this.

Iq tests give us a general idea of iq

Some people with disabilities such as autistism may struggle with activities on IQ tests but may be smart in other areas.

May be an accurate measure of intelligence in terms of what they are measuring with that particular test.

A negative score could lead an individual to live up to a self fulfilling prophecy

What are the results of an IQ test actually used for? Do we really need to know if we're not planning on joining MENSA

# data[].attributes.body
No, they test too narrow a type of intelligence and do not look at other types. They do not look at creativity and ability to think outside the box for soloutions. They also do not account for thoes with conditions such as autism, who have high strengths in particular areas, or can be immensely good at retaining facts but struggle with verbal or written ability.

# data[].attributes.body
There are different types of intelligence such as social intelligence that are not measured on an IQ test; that being said IQ tests are a good predictor of success

# data[].attributes.body
Could just be having an ‘off’ day or other things may affect their score such as a bad sleep, other things on their mind etc

# data[].attributes.body
some people are good at music, art etc but there is no IQ test specifically for that, so they may score low even though they are talented in their field

# data[].attributes.body
May influence an individuals motivation to learn if they have a get a low IQ

# data[].attributes.body
IQ testing doesn't measure all levels of intelligence. You can be intelligent in many different ways

# data[].attributes.body
Things that could affect an individuals IQ: environment, whether they have other insterests e.g sports may not want to focus on academic intelligence, may have been told they are not intelligent so may not try hard, family history.

# data[].attributes.body
Requires a universal definition of intelligence which doesn't exist.
Related to ability to learn but not performance - which is largely environmental.
Has negative implications for those with 'low IQ' due to the stickiness of labels. This may affect  people's lives where it may not have done and hold them back. Also may end up being a self fullfilling prophecy.

# data[].attributes.body
the new measures of IQ we have today are good as everyone can take the test like adults and children. However other factors can affect people’s performce levels in IQ testing. For example, people with dyslexia often struggle with tests but they can still be very intelligent. So environmental factors are ignored often

# data[].attributes.body
It is accurate for academic sides of things and general problem solving, but someone with a lower IQ compared to someone with a higher IQ could be a lot more street smart or be able to pick up on things better

# data[].attributes.body
They are helpful in the means to standardise people, and assess their abilities, yet the complexity of cognitive processes and understanding cannot be truly understood in one test.
Emotional intelligence is vital, as you can be academically superior, but to succeed in life, you need to be able to empathise and understand others.
A negative of IQ testing is the tendency to affiliate self worth with intelligence (IQ), whereas there are exceptions actually many other factors that are arguably more important than a quantified intelligence score.
A person's education may affect their performance on an IQ test, yet this does not represent their true potential, only their reductive grades.

# data[].attributes.body
Measures general academic ability and problem solving

# data[].attributes.body
Perhaps IQ tests are accurate in terms of day to day intelligence e.g. understanding of real world situations, puzzle solving. But neglects factors such as emotional intelligence and behavioural intelligence. Maybe these are more affected by our social environments so harder to test?

# data[].attributes.body
Related to relationships/social
Positive- appropriate teaching group/level
Negative-can limit people in education/jobs
Education level can effect iq and genetics

# data[].attributes.body
IQ tests do not define a persons academic success as people may be clever and lazy so not achieve or not clever but try hard and achieve a lot.
It does not take into account emotional intelligence in the tests and is purely just a raw score of cognitive ability.
Plus the result can be affected by luck of being able to do things on the day or unlucky by not being able too do something you’d usually do

# data[].attributes.body
One negative with IQ testing is that if a person gets a low score on a test their self esteem might be affected. Socially sensitive.

# data[].attributes.body
A negative of IQ tests is that IQ tests do not measure expertise in a certain field and instead focus on general academic ability.

# data[].attributes.body
No, some people do not perform well in ‘tests’ and have other, more practical abilities. Many people are successful in society who have lower IQs.
Could see Pygmalion effect: someone told they have a lower IQ which could affect confidence/future performance
