Answer 1

Answer: The statement that it is not true is 'intelligence can be measured directly and precisely, the same as knowledge of math factors or reading ability'

Explanation: This statement is not true due to the multiplicity of factors that are involved when studying intelligence. Sometimes there are external or internal variables (such as anxiety, lack of sleep, emotional issues, hunger, etc) that affects directly on the results you are getting as an evaluator; There are some methods involved in quantifying intelligence as a construct but it depends, also, on statistical factors (for example, culture) that added to individual variables make it impossible to evaluate it precisely.
