Views of Chinese Psychologists toward Intelligence
Yan, Gonggu; Saklofske, Donald H.; Oakland, Thomas
School Psychology International, v30 n5 p456-473 2009
The concepts of intelligence and methods to assess it constitute important contributions to psychology and have had a profound impact on school psychology practice. While the perspectives and practices of North American and European psychologists toward the construct and assessment of intelligence generally are well known, the views held by psychologists in the People's Republic of China are less well known. This research describes the views of Chinese psychologists about intelligence and compares them with previously expressed summaries obtained from American psychologists in 1921 and 1986. The results indicate that Chinese psychologists view intelligence as an important construct that includes a large and robust set of attributes, including some that are not commonly identified by psychologists in the United States.
