Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Alfred Binet developed the intelligence test to identify children who needed special-education programs. He wanted to provide an objective way of identifying students who needed extra help in school. His test was later adapted and revised by others, including Lewis Terman, who used it in the United States to identify students who were particularly gifted or who had intellectual disabilities. Binet's original intent, however, was to help improve the educational outcomes for all students.
