In Jensen's distinction between level-I and level-II abilities, which one of the following is not a characteristic of Level-I ability ?

  • A.It involves neural registration and consolidation of stimulus inputs.
  • B.It involves relatively little transformation of input.
  • C.It is abstract and is measured by tests which are "culture reduced".
  • D.It is relatively homogeneously distributed among different racial group.

Answer: C

The feature that is not a characteristic of Level-I ability is that it is abstract and measured by culture-reduced tests.

Jensen's Level I is associative ability, such as rote memory and digit span. It needs little transformation of input, involves registration and consolidation of stimuli, and was claimed to be spread about evenly among racial groups.

The abstract, culture-reduced character belongs to Level II (conceptual) ability, which is measured by tests of reasoning. So that option describes the wrong level.
