We will be discussing IQ test bias. Test bias is when one group has a much higher test result than another group taking the same test. Arthur Jensen was questioning the IQ’s bias. The type of bias that Jensen was referring to is content validity bias. “Some children never have the opportunity to learn about some of the items” (Kaplan & Saccuzzo,2017 pg 521). These children come from different cultures. Black Americans sometimes are put in special classes because of their test scores but when they are not in class, they present higher intelligence. The IQ test needs to be modified to fit every culture. IQ tests will never be perfect. There are too many factors in humans that make it impossible. We need to correct this but doing so will be difficult. We are humans and are all different. The IQ test has input from many individuals and does not always have input from all cultures. We have equal opportunities to succeed. This is why we have special classes for disadvantages. Even if the IQ test fails them the school special education teacher can help them better themselves by challenging them. Relying on test results only is not a good practice. People have test anxiety. Some do not test well. Kids or Adults that come here from another country might not be able to understand our language. The reality is tests are good but we are human and no test can be perfect. The US government is one entity that rules the USA but each state has the ability to make its own laws. Our schools are funded by the state and federal governments. Our government gives money to the schools but it comes with expectations. This is why the schools can only do what the government allows them to do.
