I did take one of those tests once, but to be honest with you, I forgot my IQ score, which I suppose goes to show you something.

I think it's fair to say that people with high IQ scores are more likely to support their validity than those with low IQ scores.

If you're good at chess, you want everyone to think that means you're smart. And if you're bad at chess, then chess doesn't mean a damn thing.

Oh, yeah. There's actually a number of IQ tests that have evolved over time. Why don't we start at the very beginning?

So first off, IQ stands for intelligence quotient, which is a term coined by the German psychologist William Stern, who ironically cautioned against using it alone to categorize intelligence.

Yeah. Stern wasn't the only one at the time working on ways to test people's intelligence. Most people identify the Binet-Simon test published in 1905 as the first real IQ test. It was developed in France to identify which school children had normal intelligence and which had abnormal intelligence.

Yeah, it was actually pretty harsh. And the fact of the matter is the turn of the century was pretty harsh in general. The original Benet-Simon test was particularly severe. It grouped children into four categories. Normality, debility, imbecility, and idiocy.
