Eight-year-old Carlos is a likeable child with good social skills. His teacher, Ms. Fortier, describes him as a "sponge" who absorbs and remembers much of what he studies in school. Yet she worries about his difficulty in learning how to read, and so she refers him to a school psychologist for evaluation. The psychologist administers several tests, including an intelligence test that yields a score of 70.
a. Explain how IQ scores are derived and what a score of 70 definitely indicates.
b. Decide whether Carlos's IQ score is an accurate reflection of his intelligence. If it is, explain why you think so. If it isn't, give at least two different explanations as to why Carlos might have gotten the score that he did.
