Nora is a 10-year-old Latina girl who is in the fifth grade. Recently, Nora's teacher referred her to be evaluated for her school's gifted program. As a part of that evaluation, Nora took an intelligence test. In comparison to intelligence tests in the past, the modern test Nora took is likely:
A. less culturally fair.
B. more culturally fair.
C. to produce a lower score for Nora.
D. as culturally fair as older tests.
intelligence tests in the past as compared to intelligence tests today were culturally insensitive and would not consider the culture or background of the test taker. Today cultural sensitivities are paid good attention to and culture is incorporated into intelligence tests such as the case of the Latina girl who may be considered based on her Spanish background.
