Understanding Intelligence Testing

Learn about the science behind IQ testing, how scores are calculated, and what they really mean for cognitive assessment.

What is IQ?

Intelligence Quotient (IQ) is a standardized measure of human intelligence and cognitive ability. IQ tests assess various mental capabilities including logical reasoning, problem-solving, pattern recognition, mathematical ability, verbal comprehension, and spatial awareness.

Developed by French psychologist Alfred Binet in the early 1900s, modern IQ tests are based on psychometric principles and calibrated against large representative samples. The average IQ score is set at 100, with a standard deviation of 15 points.

IQ Score Ranges

130+ Very Superior (Top 2%)
120-129 Superior
110-119 High Average
90-109 Average
80-89 Low Average
70-79 Borderline

How We Calculate IQ Scores

Our IQ scoring methodology is based on established psychometric principles, specifically inspired by norm-referenced scoring methods used in professional assessments. The calculation process considers both accuracy and time efficiency, comparing your performance to other test-takers.

Accuracy Component

Your accuracy—the percentage of questions answered correctly—forms the primary component of your score. This is calculated relative to all other test-takers, establishing your accuracy percentile ranking.

Time Efficiency Component

We also analyze how quickly you solve problems, but only in comparison to others with similar accuracy levels. This prevents fast but incorrect answers from inflating scores. The time component is weighted based on your accuracy—if you're highly accurate, solving problems quickly is rewarded more significantly.

Norm-Referenced Scoring

Your final IQ score is determined by comparing your combined performance (accuracy and time) to a representative sample of other test-takers. This percentile-based approach ensures that scores are meaningful and comparable, following the same principles used in professional IQ assessments like the WAIS and Stanford-Binet.

Growing Sample Size Advantage

As more people take our tests, the sample size grows, making percentile rankings increasingly accurate. This is a significant advantage over traditional norming, which typically uses samples of 1,000-2,000 people. Our growing database allows for more precise population estimates and more reliable IQ score calculations. The larger the sample, the better we can represent the actual distribution of human intelligence.

Scientific Foundations & Resources

Our IQ tests are based on established psychometric principles and intelligence theory. Below are valuable resources for learning more about intelligence testing and cognitive assessment.

  • Triarchic Theory of Intelligence: Robert Sternberg's model including analytical, creative, and practical intelligence

Important Educational Note

While our IQ tests are designed using scientific principles and provide valuable educational insights, they are not a substitute for professional psychological assessment. Online IQ tests are best used for educational and entertainment purposes. For official IQ testing, educational placement, or clinical assessment, please consult with a licensed psychologist or educational professional.
