The researcher needs a measure of intelligence that is highly reliable and will not disadvantage children who are not used to standardized tests. An individual, nonverbal test that is objectively scored would be the best choice for meeting these criteria. Nonverbal tests minimize the impact of language differences and cultural biases, and objective scoring ensures that the results are consistent and unbiased.
