jul 8, 1857 - Alfred Binet

Description:

Alfred Binet was a French psychologist who created the first modern intelligence test. Using this test, he identified students who needed special help in coping with the school curriculum. Binet also sought to define the differences between children of different mental capabilities through the development of his intelligence test called the Binet-Simon Scale. Binet didn't limit his intelligence tests to children. He also included five tests that could be taken by adults.
