The traditional view of intelligence was best conceptualized as a single, general capacity for conceptualization and problem solving which simply measured by the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) test.

Cognitive Assessment The difference between an IQ test and a Cognitive Assessment is that an IQ test works on the numerical value presented on a scale.
