Document Summary
Different manifestations of intelligence: two people can solve the same problem in different ways. Diagnosis of subnormality: comparing normal and subnormal children. Avoiding schoolish" tasks, because then intelligence can be confused with a lack of schooling. Mental orthopedics: a program of mental exercises to increase the intellenctual levels of subnormal children, especially by helping them concentrate and pay attention. Intelligence quotient = mental age / chronological age. Genetic epistemology: developmental theory of how people get knowledge. Chapter 14 mind, machines, and cognitive psychology. Symbolic logic: mathematics algebra and logic are part of the same kind of system in which symbols are manipulated according to rules. Boolean algebra: symbols can represent numbers, but also other logical operations. Turing test: test the intelligence" of a machine. General problem solver difference between algorithms and heuristics means-end analysis. A computer program can never replicate the qualities of intentionality and consciousness that accompany human intelligence and reasoning.
