Jack A Naglieri: The Pass Theory of Intelligence, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A paradigm‑shifting alternative to traditional IQ models, PASS theory reshapes how we understand intelligence.

For more than a century, the dominant model of intelligence has reduced the complex and wide-ranging nature of intelligence to a single number---an IQ score. Drawing on A. R. Luria's pioneering neurocognitive research, PASS theory reconceptualizes intelligence as the dynamic interaction of four mental systems: planning, attention, simultaneous processing, and successive processing. First introduced in the 1990s, PASS theory has since been developed, applied, and empirically tested across diverse populations and contexts.

This volume synthesizes decades of research and applications, offering the most comprehensive overview of PASS theory to date. Readers will find a clear explanation of the empirical foundations of PASS theory, advances in measurement, and applications in understanding reading, math, ADHD‑related behaviors, and other aspects of neurodiversity. The book also highlights cross‑cultural findings, developmental considerations, and educational interventions informed by PASS principles.

Essential reading for those who research and assess learning and cognition---as well as those who design and evaluate interventions---this book provides a scientifically grounded, process‑based framework for understanding how people think, learn, and solve problems.
