The concept of Intelligence Quotient or IQ was developed by

  • A.Galton
  • B.Binet
  • C.Stern
  • D.Terman

Answer: C

The concept of IQ was developed by Stern.

The German psychologist William Stern proposed in 1912 that mental age be divided by chronological age to give an intelligence quotient:

\[ \text{IQ} = \frac{\text{MA}}{\text{CA}} \]

Lewis Terman later multiplied the ratio by 100 and popularised the term in the Stanford-Binet test (1916). Alfred Binet devised the first practical intelligence test and the idea of mental age, but not the quotient. Francis Galton pioneered the measurement of individual differences.
