دانلود کتاب Intelligence: Measurement, Theory, and Public Policy

The chapters in this book are based on the papers that were presented at a symposium held at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on April 30 through May 2, 1985, in honor of Professor Lloyd G. Humphreys on the occasion of his retirement from the Departments of Psychology and of Educational Psychology. Although Professor Humphreys’s doctoral studies and early publications focused on human conditioning, and his work on partial reinforcement first published in 1939 is still considered a classic, he is best known for his contributions to the study of human abilities and individual differences. This work began during World War II with the Army Air Force’s Aviation Psychology Program and has continued for more than 40 years.

Humphreys’s long-standing interest in the measurement and theory of intelligence and their implications for public policy provided a natural focus for the symposium in his honor. The three themes of the symposium—the measurement of intelligence, the theory of intelligence, and intelligence and public policy—represent his fundamental and continuing contributions to the science of psychology and to society.
