Abstract

This article summarises the development and use of intelligence tests in China. Part one introduces the historical development of testing in China and notes Western intelligence tests which have been adapted for use in China, as well as those developed by Chinese psychologists. Part two reviews research using intelligence tests in China including difference studies, correlation studies and studies of special groups. Today, more and more intelligence tests are being developed and used in China.
