Credit if two of the three pictures are described or interpreted. (See The Measurement of Intelligence, pp. 191-92.)
3. Repeating Five Digits
Say, "Now, listen. I am going to say over some numbers and after I am through, I want you to say them exactly as I do. Listen closely and get them just right." Give (a) 3, 1, 7, 5, 9, and if necessary (b) 4, 2, 8, 3, 5, and (c), 9, 8, 1, 7, 6. Do not re-read any set. Avoid grouping.
Credit if one set of the three is given correctly.
4. Tying Bow Knot
Show S. a completed bow knot (shoestring tied around a pencil) and say: "You know what kind of a knot this is, don't you? It is a bow knot. I want you to take this other piece of string and tie the same kind of knot around my finger." Give S. string of same length and hold finger conveniently for S.
Credit if double bow (both ends folded in) is tied within one minute. The usual half knot as basis must not be omitted. Single bow, half credit.
5. Giving Differences
Say, "What is the difference between a fly and a butterfly?" If S. does not understand, say, "You know flies, do you not? You have seen flies? And you know the butterflies? Now, tell me the difference between a fly and a butterfly." Same for stone and egg, and wood and glass.
Credit if any real difference is given in two of three questions. (See The Measurement of Intelligence, pp. 200-01.)
